Food was tasty using in season ingredients. Good home cooking with any particular flourishes. Veal scaloppini with mushrooms and artichokes was rich and good. Dessert was a seasonal grape pie. The d�cor consists of travel posters covering brick vaulted ceiling. I was impressed that the waitress next to our table rejected a bottle of wine

This restaurant was recommended by our concierge. It had good food, especially the house special pasta and a pretty good atmosphere, but the lighting was way too bright for my taste. While we did not have the Steak Florentine, it was served at the table next to ours and looked great. It was quite rare, however, even though the table had asked for medium. At the end of our meal we were offered a complementary shot of lemoncello, which was a ni
