Always pleasantly surprised by the wonderful options, some new seasonal dishes and some constant favorites. The great experience started with the cocktails, ramped up with the delicious small plates, and finished nicely with the wonderful mussels entree. Will return.

Great Coolinary menu! (We got all 3 options for two people. Wanted to try everything!) Fun and knowledgeable staff! We had a great time!

One of the best restaurants I have ever been to. We are from out of town and went here because it was nearby and on a list for having great cocktails, but the food was just as incredible. We got the bone marrow, burrata, and potatoes small plates which were all amazing and then the chicken dish… my boyfriend could not stop raving about it. All the portions were pretty sizable and reasonably priced.Ambiance both inside and outside was lovely and quiet, and the servers were wonderful. We’d go back in a heartbeat!

Food was amazing! We ordered every single small plate on the menu and was phenomenal! Service was excellent! We will definitely be back!

What an incredible experience. Melissa took such good care of us with her food recommendations and attentive and friendly service. The rest of the staff was wonderful to experience as well. You can tell this is a true team environment. Everything was on point from the moment we sat down to the moment we left. Thank you to all. Cheers,

Amazing food

The chefs choices for the charcuterie board were superb. The drinks were amazing.

Our server Melissa was so lovely! The food was delicious, drinks as well. It’s also a beautiful restaurant! I enjoyed every minute of my birthday dinner.

Super attentive wait staff. Everything was delicious

Told the waitress upon seating that my guest could not tolerate any red/tomato sauced dishes. She promptly recommended one (mussels) that shows up bathed in tomato....uhg! Cauliflower pretending to be something other than cauliflower? Not really sure what the chefs intent was here but it was not an enjoyable experiment. Far too many different ingredients to list, all aparently trying to hide the fact it was cauliflower. Some of us actually LIKE cauliflower. Mixing it with too many other things was not improvement. On half of a buratta ball also topped with a multitude of ingredients ruined what would have been better served as a simple burrata ball, the whole buratta ball!! There was more delicious bread than actual cheese in this dish Scallops that were expertly prepared saved the day for me. Again a lot of ingredients in this dish but this cocaphony actually worked. Over all an ok meal in a wonderful room. Just wished the food matched the minimalist design more.
