    Simply superb! I am ALL ABOUT a dimly lit restaurant - CLASSY service - Justice was our waitress and she was PROFESSIONAL and knew that menu! It was my first time here - usually go to Taverna Rustica which we also like - the bartender there recommended your restaurant when I asked him about which one in the conglomerate was dimly lit - he did not steer us wrong! Food was top notch - this place is a don’t miss

    I can’t believe this is the first time I’ve been here!! The food was so good. This is definitely one of the best places for fine dining in Wilmington. We had the fried calamari, mushroom pizza, shrimp bruschetta, Caesar salad, beef sticks, beets, crème brûlée and lava cake.

    I had to be different! The first course presented a Three Onion Soup and a glass of Tempranillo. My choice of entrée was a 14oz Double Bone Pork Chop glazed with Bourbon-Maple. Gruyere Mac & Cheese was a light, creamy, and delicious side dish. I was so full. Half of my plate came home with me, including my dessert. After relaxing at home for a bit, I indulged in the Olive Oil Cake topped with Orange Marmalade. It's so good, I'm smacking my lips after every bite! Kudos to your fabulous server, Patrick. I love dining at a restaurant where the staff makes you feel like old friends, and your every need is taken care of before you even soak a word. Patrick was a pleasure and made our dining experience spectacular.
