We sat at the bar and the bartender was great! Dinner and wines delicious! Entertainment was unexpected and sang/played a variety of songs. We hadn’t been in over a year but will return!

Appetizers and wine flight were the highlight. The short rib was a bit dry.

Very disappointed. I had high hopes for this place but food was almost inedible, especially for how expensive it was. We got the papardelle pasta with chicken and margherita flatbread. One positive is that the wine was good and there was a cute atmosphere. We were also informed after we had purchased happy hour appetizers that there was no happy hour on that day

Our server was wonderful and helping us decide on wine, all our food choices were fabulous and we really enjoyed the live music. It was a touch too loud for conversations at a four person table. Suggest if possible to turn down the speaker a smidge.

We enjoyed a wine flight and a cheese flight before splitting a salad with two glasses of wine. There was live music (acoustic) but he wasn't too loud so we could still talk. The cheese was lovely, but the salad was just okay.

Great food, wonderful service. It was quiet on a Monday night which was fine. Some wines seemed very overpriced.
