beautiful and comfortable restaurant with lots of room for big and small parties. informal and friendly atmosphere. BYOL and very accommodating and prompt, professional and friendly waiters who were quick to adjust menus and even offer suggestion when we asked for modification due to dietary restrictions or just wanting something done a little different. Appetizers were just so good, and my Calamari was just the way it should be: crisp and light and not chewy at all! an absolute and rare delight! And everyone of the 5 of us was smacking or lips within two bites of whatever we were having for main dish--large variety with a European twist. After several fun filled hours, where we joined in singing happy birthday to several surrounding tables, and snapping each others pictures, I was the only one that had any leftovers to take home, though my chicken with artichokes was delicious and tender--- on South Beach diet I am just not hungry and don't eat such large portions anymore. and yes I lost almost 40 lbs in 6 month. No, did not have any of the at least a dozen of absolutely scrumptious looking European style cakes and a host of additional other desserts which all looked home made and different from the usual fare and of such a large variety sure to please any palate. Of course there were several special cheese cakes and fruit tortes and a LARGE glass cup of berries that I would have had but .. I was full! and all that at a very reasonable price that my friend from Manhattan just COULD NOT BELIEVE. I gave it 5 stars because of the delicious food impeccably served in a great atmosphere and I really could not think of anything that was missing. I cant wait to go back and sample more of the food!
