Our waiter, Derek, was friendly and professional ( his lovely fiancee Angela also works there and was keeping an eye on him ) Our buss boy Conrad also kept an eye on us and was very professional. All items on the menu not yet available but that's to be expected with a "soft" opening. Price wise I would say a 1 to 4 dollars per more per entree than than other places in the area.
Had lunch there today. Was very disappointed with the limited variety of lunch offerings. Had one of the only two sandwiches offered, Chicken Parm. The sauce was good but far to little of it to compensate for the overcooked chicken and the very dry roll. Brief look at the dinner menu confirms what others have said about prices a bit high. $33 for Rack of Lamb and $18 for Veal Parm is too much. The place was virtually empty between 12:30 and 1:30 today (Friday)
