    The food was pretty good! Only complaints were that we never received bread at the table whereas other tables got complimentary bread and the glasses smelled like fish so I couldn’t drink the water. We told our waitress about it and she replaced the glass but still charged us for a full bottle of still water even though we couldn’t drink the water that was originally poured out. The second set of glasses that was brought out also smelled like fish so wish we didn’t have to pay for the bottle of water. The drinks we ordered from the bar had no smell so we just stuck to drinks. Would definitely come back though because we liked the food.

    Beautiful space, outstanding service, everything ordered was fantastic. Location next to park on the water is perfect for after dinner stroll to enjoy one of the most spectacular skylines in the world. Will return next time I am in LIC

    Overall service was slow, staff took forever to come to the table, even water refills starting getting slow and we had to ask for more bread. They took forever to come take our appetizer order and dinner order. However, the pizza was delicious but the pasta they served my nephew was too raw and couldn’t eat it. I had a pork chop the serving size was small and barely any sides came with it, but it was delicious. My mother thought her veil was too hard. My sister in law liked her pasta and thought it was delicious. May or may not return.
