Came here on a Tuesday night to try something new there was no live music but on the weekends they usually is it was a nice ambience I love the friendly casual feel they have a front patio as well as a back patio with lots of space. The food was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be coming back. Parking is very easy and lots of options close by.

We enjoyed a light supper of the roasted vegetables and pear, arugula salad with a glass of the pinot grigio in the delightful patio. We were fortunate to be there for the guitarist whose music was the perfect accompaniment to our food.

Amazing restaurant, the servers were great and helped us pick our meals! We ordered a limoncello flute for our dessert but the waiter was so apologetic because they didn’t have the champagne flute so he suggested the truffle which did not fail our taste buds! Great place to have a dinner date or a just to eat alone! Let’s not forget the adorable decor and the hidden dining area! Definitely my favorite part of the restaurant!

If I could give 5 stars I would, just because of the food. Sadly, I was a bit disappointed during my recent visit. My husband and I were celebrating our 29th anniversary on Saturday night when we entered the restaurant around 7pm. We were greeted warmly at the door by a gentleman wearing street clothes, who escorted us through an empty dining room to the back patio where they had ‘live’ entertainment (I’ll get to that later).

Loved the food. Started with a spinach ravioli appetizer, which tasted delicious. The starter bread was soft with a subtle taste of butter. It was a nice cozy place. I recommend people to come for the food with family and/or friends.

Outstanding. Visiting from NYC, so I know good food. Dined in the garden on a Tuesday (3 of us), and I went back on Friday with 3 other people (4 of us). Saw a variety of authentic dishes, all excellent. Generous portions, so pricing is reasonable.
