    Our overall experience was wonderful. The hostess friendly and accommodating. Our server was attentive without interrupting of conversation. Our meal was very good. The rabbit and nettle small plate has to be the best dish I have enjoyed in a long time. Exceptional!

    Service was excellent. Restaurant is beautifully decorated and brick chicken is one of the most delicious meals I’ve ever had. I highly recommend.

    I ordered the mushroom Tagliatelle, it was excellent. A person in our group had trouble with the skin and bones in her trout.
