party of four and we sat in an unusually high cushioned bench seat booth. That aside, the food was delicious. We tried the chard broccolini, Caesar salad, the halibut dish with chard corn, lamb chop Lollipops and every last dish was delectable. A multitude of flavors that all blended well. both owners, Wesley and Damon, the chef, Came out to inquire, however everything was. All servers tended to the tables which gave the feeling that we were being taken excellent care of. Five stars !!

This restaurant is absolutely gorgeous inside. We loved our meal. I just got a simple pasta dish with tomatoes and olive oil but it was done to perfection. The lamb meatballs were delicious. We will definitely be back again soon.
