    How did I miss the since the November Opening? Located in a "hidden" cluster of condos and businesses this is a wonderful spot to remember for many reasons. It is welcoming and attractive similar to a private club. The staff is very cordial and checks for any further needs but not intrusive. The owner is also at the bar and very knowledgable and personal. All that said, the food is creative and exceptionally curated. While the entree prices are moderate, the dinner INCLUDES a very creative and generous portioned appetizer offering - the smoked burrata was outstanding as was the stuffed eggplant. Entrees were exceptional and generous - more to take home. This is a truly independent establishment - one location - no corporate mandates, and the quality shows!! Do not hesitate to schedule a meal - casual or memorable, here. You will not be dissapointed.

    The service was what to be expected at a fine place like this. Our server provided friendly and good suggestions on what to order. The flavors of the food were unique to us because we had not experienced food like this. We ordered large plates of the suggested items so the six of us could share the food family style. We will definitely return to this restaurant.
