They were very kind to us as the app logged us for an outdoor reservation and it was raining out! They “made” us a table and didn’t even blink at it! Thank you! We enjoyed the octopus. The linguini, the scallops and the venison. We will be back and will book the reservation properly next time!

Birthday night, midweek, 7:00 pm. Not too crowded, service excellent, food excellent. Dined on ravioli stuffed with braised beef & cheese w/chunky tomato sauce, also chicken parmesan. Our salads were amazing. I had green market salad perfectly dressed & partner had arugula salad, perfectly dressed. I wanted a specially made drink & they followed my instructions. Delicious! Our new fine dining place. Only issue, wish the parking situation was more convenient.
