Gift Tips
- Consider starting with the complimentary bread and red pepper hummus, which sets a strong first impression before the main courses arrive.
- The rigatoni alla vodka is a popular choice for a rich, comforting pasta dish with plenty of flavor.
- If seafood is on the table, the scallops and oysters make a polished choice for a special dinner.
- The meatballs are a standout option and work well as an appetizer or a side to share.
- For dessert, the strawberry shortcake with homemade whipped cream is a sweet way to end the meal.
- Make a reservation for popular dinner times, especially on weekends, since the dining room can fill up quickly.
- A seat at the bar can be a pleasant choice for cocktails, martinis, and a more casual evening with attentive service.
