Nice menu with some creative dishes. At sunset the sun shines right in everyone’s face for about 30 minutes so that was a negative. Service was below what I would expect from a dinner only restaurant.

The food was very good, the prices were reasonable, but our waiter left a lot to be desired. He was not very personable, not very attentive, and when asked for a “to go” box, he had to be reminded twice!

Food was only ok. The service was bad. One waiter serving the whole reataurant. He was clearly not happy to be there…appearance was not tidy and not very friendly. Slow service - we had to flag him down just to take our order. Tagliatelle was overcooked but the seafood with it was good and plentiful. The mezze platter was small and the hummus was runny. Flatbread had burned edges. We asked for a chiller to hold our bottle of white wine. No such thing. Waiter said “it’s over chilled already.” Tables are too high for the chairs so we all felt we were kids sitting at the adult table. Chairs are not comfortable - no cushions on resin chairs. All together did not make for an enjoyable night out. Will not return.

We had an awesome experience and this was the best restaurant we had eaten at in a month down here. It felt like we were in a European cafe. The mezze was very good. The apple salad was beautiful and delicious! The stuffed squid was tender and tasty. Please go out and support this family owned and operated Mediterranean delicious bistro!!! Our waiter was so nice and attentive!!

Our food was delicious on Saturday night. We had octopus, salmon, Branzino, and veal osso bucco. Everyone licked their plates. Burrata appetizer too. I think this place goes under the radar screen and has an interesting menu. They make their own bread which we also purchased to take home.

Great menu. Food was excellent. The 2 who had the whole Bronzino were raving about it.
The veal was cooked to perfection and the grouper was also very good.
