As for Entrées on the lunch menu, pancetta wrapped pan fried Gulf shrimp and rigatoni with Tuscan-style braised Colorado lamb shank caught our attention.  Another option includes Black Angus Meatloaf.   The Gulf shrimp is paired with provencal vegetable creamy polenta  and parmigiano-reggiano  The dark green kale is pleasing to the eye pulls together well for featured Mediterranean dish of polenta and pancetta.  The rigatoni dish has an incredible sauce, tender meat, roasted fennel and fresh sage. 

We finished the afternoon of dining with a pleasing red velvet cupcake with light sprinkles of coconut. 

Atmosphere: At lunch the crowd is primarily a sea of business executives in white shirts and ties.  Later in the day, the crowd become young and trendy.

*Starting Valentine's day the restaurant will be open on Sundays.  There will be a special  menu.
