Nice experience! Went to this restaurant to celebrate my birthday. There is plenty of parking. The restaurant has a beautiful... patio. Make you forget that you right off of route 7. Great atmosphere and service. Food was excellent.. delicious options. I got the special pasta with seafood. Huge portion… enough leftovers to have for dinner the next night. My bf got a steakentrée that was also delicious . Read more
We had a good experience. The food was good and they offer a pretty good selection on the menu. They have a full bar, indoor and... outdoor seating. Plenty of parking and a nice atmosphere. We made a reservation but depending on the day/time you can probablywalk in. We’ll eat here again when back in the area. Read more
Food honestly was delicious (save for a weird garnish on my short rib that was terrible tasting, inedible). Pasta with... Asaparagus, fresh Peas and tomatoes was perfectly seasoned and delicious. Probably the best calamari I've ever had. Short ribsand polenta was delicious (aside from aforementioned above). The overall vibe of the restaurant was very nice, if a little odd.A/C seemed not to work as it was stuffy and warm inside while hot outside. Our server was okay, if not super personable. Heleft halfway through serving us too. Empty restaurant when we got there early and hostess tried to put us in direct sun withoutasking us if we had a preference despite every table being open. She wasn't super friendly, either. It was a very goodexperience overall if not outstanding. But worth a try for the food alone. Read more
The food was absolutely delicious, as we're the bottomless mimosas. We went for Mother's Day, and the atmosphere was lovely. If... it was warmer, we would have sat outside. It's a bit pricey, but worth it! Read more
Lovely space - very warm and welcoming vibe. We went for a typical date night on a Saturday around 8:30pm. Wasn’t crowded but... had good energy. We ordered the charred octopus and the burrata for appetizers. The octopus was really yummy and came with verytasty bits of chorizo, potato, and fennel. The burrata was good but came with only three of the tiniest crostini! We could haveused 2-3 more pieces. I got the salmon with farro which was very good. The fish had very, very crispy skin which was delicious.My fiancé got one of the specials - rack of lamb. This was the star dish of the night. Tender, juicy, and the sides it camewith were so good. We were too full for dessert but the options sounded really delicious. The server said they’re allcompletely homemade. Next time we’ll try to save room. They had a lemon ricotta cheesecake with blueberry compote that soundedamazing. Our server and the bussers were attentive, quick, and professional. Overall great experience and we’ll be back withfriends and family in tow. Read more
Update: I went here again on October 3rd. I proposed to my now fiance there. They accommodated me and my 20 guest. No issues.... Food and service was great once again.. Thank you so much for making our special day that much special. Thank you management andstaff... Took my girlfriend here for Brunch on September 4th for her birthday after weeks of research of places to go forBrunch and Mimosas. Glad I ended up choosing this place. Food was absolutely delicious. Service was amazing. Bottomless Mimosaswere a hit. There was 9 of us in our party. No one complained about their food. No one's order was messed up. Wait staff werevery attentive and just on point with everything. Highly recommended. I will DEFINITELY be back. Read more
There is outdoor patio seating, as well as indoor and bar seating. The signature drink is beautifully made and delicious. The... bread at the table is so good, you may want to ask for more before you order. The menu is simple and the dishes use fresh andlocal ingredients. There are always a few specials that you should also consider, the wait staff can recite them frommemory. The food portions are perfect, not too much, not too little. Everyone in my party felt their dinner was excellent, andwe had room for dessert. Read more
Good food with a great-looking setting. I enjoyed the charred octopus the most, would be great to make into a meal with a few... sides. Read more
