    The pear salad has returned! It’s one of my favorite dishes on the menu. The salmon and branzino are also very delicious. Pair any of these with “she bites” and you’re golden for rest of the evening!

    We went for brunch. The people who opted for food off of the lunch menu were very happy with their meals. The Italian twist on American breakfast standards was hit or miss. Avoid the cannoli pancakes.

    Delightful waiter with a fabulous sense of humor made the meal. Food was solid, ambiance was lovely (we sat outside because there was a private party indoors, but the weather was fine, so it wasn't a problem). When we arrived for our 7:00 reservation, the proprietor told us we'd need to leave by 8 because of the private party. We explained that we would not have made the reservation if we'd known that, and he quickly adjusted to 8:30, which was fine. A nice evening.
