Everything we ate was so good, but they were out of almost everything. We tried to order the bruschetta, they were out. We tried ordering the bolognese, they were out. The chicken parm, out. We had to settle on our third choice, and the menu is already very small. Even after experiencing these conveniences the manager came over to say sorry but didn’t offer us anything to make up for the fact. Overall a really cute place with good food but they need to work out some of these inventory issues.

It is such a treat that Cynthia opened on H Street. Our neighborhood has needed a restaurant like this. I love the Parmesan fries and burgers and am looking forward to trying other menu items.
