If you're looking for a cozy spot to enjoy a glass of wine on a Friday or Saturday night, the Zucca garden is your place. Because all those firepits are even better to sit by on a cool winter evening.

If the weather is yucky, no problem, we've got some nice bar seating in the Toscano room.

Oh, and we always welcome your picnic items or takeout from area restaurants should you want to make a night of it."
