We were at Mariella's restaurant and had a wonderful evening... it wasn't very busy and so we had the full attention of our waitress... She was very friendly and knew what she was talking about...

We didn't hold them up for to long but it was a good sign of things to come... we proceeded to have devour their amazing platter and a bottle of wine.
One of the many things that amazed me was the lack of noise pollution, both from patrons and traffic.
Well priced on top of it all as well!
Well worth the visit, we will be back many times...
