Perfect spot in the city for our 4 adults and 5 kids. Loved being outside in the noise watching the hustle and bustle. I cannot remember the last time I had Italian as good as the lobster linguine.

This was a wonderful restaurant experience! It was incredible food, and we didn’t spurge to the extent of ordering anything more than a couple burgers and the bread and butter. It was ssooooo good though! I appreciate the fast, excellent waitress, who actually surprised us with how quickly she took our orders and got us our app and meals. Definitely making this our go-to spot for date night after moving to the area this past few days :)
