“Update:06-03-2026-tried their pasta dishes chicken parm and Rigatoni Ala Vodka with chicken great dishes did not dissapoint. Sauces were creamy and flavor chicken was not dry 10/10.Came here for a quick lunch date with the wife. I did put in an online reservation for 12 noon today just incase it was super busy. It is Tuesday afternoon wasn't super busy which was great for us. We sat outside, the server was super nice. We ordered the Pink cocoa 😍 drink was absolutely delicious 10/10 will order again. Their old fashions was on point , we'll balanced you dont get that hard hit of alcohol taste 10/10 will order again. For lunch we had the chicken lemon with potatoes everything was cooked right and the lemon flavor wasn't overpowering 10/10 will order again. Their raspberry chicken salad was very refreshing, I felt like it was missing something 8 7.5. Their lobster 🦞 ravioli was super creamy and full of flavor 10/10 will order again. The ravioli can be split between 2 or 3 people price was around 34 dollars bit pricey but worth it. Last drink I got was the Apple pie drink didnt really taste like a apple pie taste more like a white Russian 7/10. Over all great experience i will come here again for another lunch experience.”
