Honestly, I was not that impressed. I am so the minority on this view. We went to the front restaurant and requested a table for two. "One and half hour wait" we were told. Not bad from what I heard about the place. We were instructed to go to the back restaurant to enjoy some wine. It was lovely back there and we did exactly that, enjoyed some wine. About an hour into it we were told that a table was opening in the back and we were welcome to take it. We did, reluctantly, (I really wanted to know what all the hoop-la was about in the front)
The wine we ordered by he glass was very oaky and had lots of tanins. But I then ordered a lovely bottle of D'oro and was surprised how easily the bottle went down. I had saltin-bocca that was dry, flat flavored and tough. My husband had the pork shank that was obscenely huge for one person and should have been presented for two people.
Desserts were absolutely incredible- for the other side of the coin. Ricotta fritters - crazy good!
I will have to go back, maybe it was a bad evening.
Kid friendly - not really - older kids preferred.
Outdoor seating - none
Takes all major credit cards
Expensive
