This is a great place. Be sure to have a reservation. Be nice and kind to everyone, they're super professional and helpful. The hibiscus cucumber Spritz is light and refreshing, a little bit sweet. But yummy. The butternut squash pasta is wonderful, as is the mushroom polenta, the broccolini is quite delish. I wish I would have had the ice cream with the espresso poured over but it didn't suit the occasion. Will definitely attend again.
