I grew up in Wakefield, and this was my first time visiting this location since it was the town's YMCA! The same steep stairs I remember (use those wrought iron railings!) lead up into a charmingly warm space. The bar is on the left and was hopping on a Thursday night. We five were seated in the dining room, tucked into a curtained alcove near the kitchen. Our server was friendly, albeit all-business. If you spend more than a few minutes deciding, she's coming back! Some might say aloof, I say efficient! She helped the undecided by offering her kitchen favorites. Her suggestions were all spot on. We were well attended to, though water glasses could have been filled more frequently. The bread service was delicious, as were all our entrees! I would love to go back and sit at the bar. Restrooms are also squeaky clean and nicely appointed!

Dinner here as usual was amazing. We went early sat at the bar again and our bartenders Elaina and Katie (sorry if spelling wrong) were so personable and took good care of us. The food was delish I had a special that was tortellini, shrimp, mushroom and spinach in a white wine sauce. So good ! My hubby went with the old stand by of veal parm. Skipped an app/salad so we ate it all no leftovers this time. We'll be back
