Firstly we all loved the large for six that was perfect for sharing plates. Every appetizer was outstanding. Main courses were good to very good. Will return and may just order a table full of apps.

All the food is good! Lobster risotto was so tasty. My friends and I split 4 desserts. I hate to be vague, but they really are ALL good. Service worked as a great team. Would go again!

Great food, warm and cozy place. It’s not too pricey for a place like that. Perfect for a date night restaurant. Highly recommended.

Loved it! Will go back! Everything was delicious. 😋 From the pita and dip, to the cauliflower app, to the mains (risotto dish and salmon dish), to the wines, to the pistachio dessert!!! Charming and quaint, and you can carry on a conversation all evening and hear each other. A wonderful evening out.

All good, though $14 for a glass of Cote du Rhone that sells for less than $20 per bottle is a bit much.
