Our Chefs
Saute chefs Francis Vollaro, Tara Bullock and our competent staff produce beautiful, innovative continental-style cuisine with Northern Italian influences. Each dish is prepared "a la minute" meaning fresh, to order. Your food is never pre-cooked or "held". Fresh pasta is still made by hand daily here in our kitchen. Our house desserts are created from our own special recipes using only the highest quality ingredients.
 
Our Logo
We feel that a business card or company logo should reveal aspects of an enterprise that reflect what the customer can actually expect. Back in 1992, when we first opened, we were the only restaurant in the area that offered live piano entertainment. Additionally, we felt that the image of a tuxedoed gentleman seated at the keys is an "upscale" statement of the level of elegance and ambiance we hope you enjoy here in our establishment.
What you see is what you get!
