Fabulous lunch complete with freshly made soup, gnocchi and pistachio crusted salmon. This is a restaurant you can easily spend 1.5 hours and not realize the time has flown by. They treat you with a tapenade doused crustini to begin your meal. The service is personal and friendly and not at all snobbish. I love the relaxed atmosphere.
