Place is clean and has a ton of seating. It was busy while we were there but you could barely tell with how the space is set up. Food overall was good, had the Shrimp Scampi and the Chicken Scampi. No complaints with either, but could have used some more seasoning on the shrimp. Biggest issue was the tiramisu as it was still completely frozen in the middle when we got it. I didn't have any, but supposedly it tasted well despite bring frozen solid.
