This restaurant is directly across from the Beacon Theater on Amsterdam Ave. we both had Montepulciano D’Abruzzo wine. It was very good. We shared 2 starters, Truffle Artichoke Bruschetta and grilled octopus(not on menu). I liked both. Janis didn’t care for the Bruschetta and like the octopus. I liked both.

Janis had 1/2 order of Bronzino and 1/2 pasta with chanterelle mushroom. Both were delicious but pasta was not hot. Howie had veal with mushrooms. Very garlicky. It was a small portion of veal. Ring ding for dessert was okay.

Had lunch outside on a beautiful day. We shared rigatoni Bolognese and Chicken Panino. Both were great The rigatoni was exceptional. It was a lot of food. It helped to share. Service was slow but very good. Pinot Grigio was very good.

Service was very slow. Janis had grilled shrimp with whole wheat pasta and vegetables. Shrimp too salty. Pasta with veggies had no taste. She couldn’t eat it. They took it off the check. Hamburger was good. Fries weren’t hot. Don’t come here again.

The food was fair. It’s not good enough to go back considering how unhealthy it is.
