Very stylish Italian restaurant. I had the special veal saltimboca. I thought the veal was delicious. Tasted more like marsala than saltimboca but it was still delicious. My wife had the tortellini in Rosa sauce with peas. Also very good. Service was excellent as was the Italian opera playing in the background.
This is an amazing restaurant! The picture attached is of the appetizer, a stuffed Italian rice ball, and it was delicious! The crust was light and savory, the middle was soft and fluffy with bits of meat, and the sauce was so good we scooped the rest up when we were done. It was topped with some sprigs of fresh bean sprouts.
Before the meal, they bring out a complimentary appetizer, toasted rolls with oil with little bits of garlic, Parmesan, and herbs. Just looking at it, I know this was a good choice for place to eat. I don't know how the prepared the bread, but it was toasted on the outside, almost like it was done in brick oven. Inside the crust, the meat of the bread was soft steamy, and cooked to perfection.
My wife ordered the spaghetti pesto. I'm not usually crazy about pestos, my aversion being that the garlic or basil is overpowering. This pesto was far from that. The flavors were balanced perfectly and it finished with a nice creamy flavor.
I ordered the Shrimp Fra Diavolo. I had no idea what I was ordering and I was pleasantly surprised. This dish was spicy red sauce with shrimp nestled in a bed of linguini. My mom used to make a spicy shrimp spaghetti, and it was one of my favorite dishes. This brought me back to those times.
Overall, this is a solid restaurant. The staff were attentive and very friendly, the service was very prompt, and it was a beautiful atmosphere. If you are in this area and have time for only one place to eat, this is the place!
The price was $88, which included two beers and two glasses of wine. The wine and beer list was really impressive.

Got there really late (within an hour of their posted closing time. ) There were no cars in the parking lot and we thought they were closed. We found them open and ready to serve. I had the pesto spaghetti with chicken. It was filling and delicious.
