this is NOT your typical Italian restaurant. It is a three or four course menu. Not everyone will like the choices of the day. If you're looking for veal parm or pasta bolognese, this is not the place for you.

If you're a foodie, it's a must try. Servers are extremely knowledgeable and pleasant, and they should be, with an average two-top costing $300 if you do some wine. At a minimum of $50 a table in tips, I'd be nice too.

The downside: On busy evenings, their valet service is horrendous. And without a doubt, Porsche's and Jag's get immediate attention. We drove our Ford that night, and waited a total of 35 minutes for our car. We watched as people who had just gotten their dessert when we turned in our valet ticket walked out and jumped in their Mercedes with little wait. We even watched a group of gentleman who had three cars between them: a porsche, a jag, and a VW. The Porsche and Jag were out in 5 minutes. The guy with the VW was stuck, like us. We wished we'd driven our BMW that evening so we could have gotten home earlier. What's more, the manager insisted the car priority wasn't the case - despite our showing him blatant examples as he watched.

This is definitely a restaurant foodies should try. Just drive a nice car, or walk - or you'll be waiting a while.
