    Very annoyed that the server described one of the meat specials totally wrong. Didn’t want to send it back. Patio wonderful with heaters working well. Pricing was very high for both appetizers and main courses.

    I’ve been coming here for sometime and I’ve really noticed the portion sizes decrease. My wife and I got the same dishes we did 6 months ago, except this time around we ordered a pizza when we realized we were still hungry after finishing. Great place and food was amazing, however when your 6 year old niece is still hungry after a plate of pasta it’s a red flag. Prices are respectable if the potions matched it. Would love to see them take the feedback and make adjustments, especially on pasta which is all flour.

    Gm and mixologist were amazing as chef Jordan. Only thing I would suggest is to do somenthing for the noise because around 8.30 was really loud but I also understand it was Saturday night and we were sitting beside the bar. Overall a great experience

    The place was not busy when we arrived but hostess put us in an awkward table. They seemed to have lots of staff and we got our drinks and appetizers quickly but waited forever for our mains. Finally waiter told us they were backed up in the kitchen but nothing offered and water glasses filled only after we had to ask. Once food came (it was fine) I had asked for Parmesan but the server just disappeared. It’s a cute place on a nice street but we will try something else next time.

    Food was great! Yum..yum. We dined outside and there were a number of bees around. Made us a little nervous as one of us is highly allergic. Maybe some bee management with a few traps could be placed outside.

    We took guests from England ho were vegetarian and found the perfect combination for everyone. We were well attended with good service and food was most enjoyable and tasty. We were happy to be put upstairs as it was quite jovial downstairs. Would certainly go back again.

    Parking was quite packed. We were lucky not to have to find a spot on the street. Reserving was easy. Waitress sat us down pretty quickly considering it was busy. Eric waited our table. He was knowledgeable about the menu items and helped us navigate it. Seating was nice, room temperature and ambience was perfect. Noise level was moderate but we prefer it this way so we could talk comfortably without worrying about being too loud. I had the Branzino and my wife had the vevetarian pomodoro. The spaghetti felt slightly undercooked, otherwise the meals were fantastic. I would visit again.

    The food, drink and environment were good. Not too fond of the service. Never asked if we wanted a second drink, never asked how the food was, had our table cleared and we were left sitting with no food or drinks for 30 minutes before having to get up and request our bills so we could leave. It was a busy night and because of everything else, I’d be happy to be returning customer, just hopefully more attentive service next time!
