Dined on Dec 20, 2024
We sat at the bar and the bartender couldn’t have been more attentive. The service was top notch. The food was very good. The octopus could have been tenderized a little more. Burrata was supposed to have heirloom tomatoes, but came with just regular Roma tomatoes and cherry tomatoes. I get it, heirlooms are out of season, but don’t keep it on the menu. Gnocchi was very flavorful but a little gritty. No espresso for the end of the meal so our bartender made espresso martinis. They were excellent. Overall, great date night. We will return.
