Came here for lunch with a group of six. We were excited to come in because of all the good reviews, but our experience was below average at best. \n\nFOOD: The pasta menu was limited for lunch, but the pasta was amazing as its reputation suggested. However, the other items were hit or miss. For instance, my smashed potatoes were burnt and bland, but the bread was soft and tasty.  \n\nSERVICE: Our waiter was inattentive. He didn't come around much to check on us, and our water glasses were often empty. We ordered alcoholic drinks, but they were brought out after the appetizers were served. This timing was disappointing.\n\nAMBIANCE: The highlight of the restaurant is the beautiful space. It's bright, elegant, and welcoming. \n\nOVERALL:  Although the food was fine, the service left us with an awkward experience that none of us would seek out again.
