Great! I love this place! It is an intimate, cozy place to enjoy a great meal! Since it is small, service is fantastic and the food is always marvelous.
It truly is my favorite place to dine. [08 May 2003 09:58:21]

Excellent! Highly Recommended! The food was excellent! The house salad may be a standard affair of greens/red vegetables & dressing but the freshest vegetables I've had in a long time at any restaurant. The meat,pasta & fish entrees were as fresh; a good balance of ingredients and a smooth combination to the palate. The owner, Demo, is an exceptionally friendly host and proud owner of his business.

OK but not great Our dinner party wasn't expecting radio music, overcooked pasta and store bought dinner rolls. Nice menu and very attentive and good service. [10 Nov 2004 09:19:35]

Poor service and bad food Service was extremely poor throughout the evening. To begin, we were left to sit for 20 minutes without seeing a waiter or a menu. I finally found the host, and he handed menus for me to distribute to my table and the table next to mine. We asked a waiter passing by if we could have a glass of water, and he informed us that there were no water glasses available. We asked that he bring water in any kind of glass, and he reluctantly did so.
We waited 30 minutes after being seated before flagging down our waiter to take our order. Dinner rolls arrived 20 minutes later and were frozen in the center.
Finally, our appetizer, onion soup arrived. It was extremely salty, as if a container of salt had just been spilled into it. We recommend not trying it. Salad arrived with the wrong dressing. The main dish, crab cakes, were fine, but nothing special.
Throughout, the waiter and staff did little to make things right.
Overall, this was one of the worst dinners we have had and definitely not worth the high cost. [19 Feb 2005 23:10:27]
