Wow. What a great experience! My friend is Italian at heart from living with one and working at an Italian restaurant. So...everything was authentic. Details like complimentary appetizers to begin and the end with a limoncello. Service was outstanding. I had pasta vodka with shrimp and added parmasean and crushed red pepper = perfect. Dessert corazon de chocolate with side order of ice cream that ended up like a sundae. My girlfriend had the ahogado de cafe. You can tell them to pour the espresso or request that you would like to. If you are a smoker you can go out to the front and smoke. If you're lucky you can get a free one from the chefs in the kitchen. Also if you're drinking a copa of wine you can take it out with you..and bring your own bottle for a fee of 5$. I Recommend the pinot grigio white wine by the glass.
