Burrata, rice balls, gnocchi, stuffed chicken over wild rice, veal chops with spinach and risotto. Apple crisp and berry pie. All of it was better than I thought it would be, all on point and delicious. No picks of the burrata it didn't last long enough. The quality was excellent, but I wish it came with some greens. I should have been coming here all this time.

Had a nice selection of apps, which were very delicious. Honey Schirracha wings were especially tasty! Good selection of beers on tap. Not fancy, but good food execution.

We had a belated birthday lunch the day after Thanksgiving. I asked for plain grilled salmon on my salad; they deep fried it. Was I not supposed to notice? The portion of spinach for baby spinach salad was quite small. They don't make their own dressing (ouch!) so I asked for oil and vinegar because I'm sensitive to spices. They mixed it for me (no cruets?) and served it in a small, plastic cup. It was oily. Portions were generally small, considering the prices. The guest of honor was looking forward to the tiramisu, but "Gigi forgot to bring it." Oh well.

Four stars for the great food. Two stars for the erratic slow service. You will enjoy the food but go when you have nowhere else to be because you will wait and wait.....

I like this place, friendly bar staff, reasonably priced drinks, nice atmosphere. Not fancy but a good neighborhood bar and restaurant. Patio is great! Simple menu, with some good choices... Mussels are a good app. Tuna tartare is always good, their new roasted garlic app is good. Pork chop entree is

Didn't really care for the live music there on a Sunday. Service took a while to get to us and didn't seem particularly interested in helping us. The patio area is tremendous and if you go inside, the bar area is a good time.

We sat outside, and the appetizers looked so good, we decided to just have appetizers. The staff was super friendly and checked on us a few times to see if we needed anything. We ate Burrata, chicken wings, drunken class, and crispy pork belly.
