This is our second visit to the restaurant. The food has been fantastic both times, and the service outstanding. Get a seat by the window to look at the campus, it's just beautiful.

Great food - you can tell they use fresh ingredients. I had the best shrimp scampi I ever had and the burrata was divine. Great value for the amount and quality of food. Service is always exceptional and ambience is perfect.

The food was quite good and the service was awful.
Our waitress literally could not open a bottle of wine (my friend opened it for her) and did not offer to have one of us taste it, waited way too long to come take our order even though the place was mostly empty, completely forgot that we had told her we had to leave by a fixed time, etc., etc., etc.
Any restaurant, and esp a quality one, should properly train its wait staff before turning them loose on patrons. This college sophomore clearly had minimal training and greatly diminished our dining experience.

Hi Peter,
Thank you for your feedback. While we’re glad you enjoyed the food, we sincerely apologize for the service issues you experienced. This isn’t the standard we strive for, and we’re addressing the concerns you raised with our team.
As a teaching restaurant, training is a top priority, and your input helps us improve. We hope to have the chance to provide a better experience in the future.

The place is beautiful; however, the food was subpar. The zucchini pasta was not tasty. The lettuce in the octopus salad was wilted, and the greens salad was uneventful. The service was just OK. I've had better places in Ithaca, like Moosewood or Allechent.
