We came in for the Prime Rib Dinner and will not be back!! Prime Rib was sliced like sandwich meat - 1 slice folded up ( claimed 6 ounces, realistically maybe at most “3 ounces). I asked for the 12 ounce cut and my wife and our guests asked for the 6 ounce cuts. Very disappointed. Total ripoff. The only restaurant that I am aware of that is doing this. If you want a Prime Rib Dinner “ Go to the Keg” or any other establishment where they do not misrepresent their cuts of meat.

Their prices are out of control for the quality. For a kids pasta with butter, no sauce, they charged $14. We ordered the mussel starter for $26 and it came with approximately 12 mussels, about a third of which were not open so we couldn't eat. From the time of sitting down to getting our orders it took about an hour, drinks took about 15 minutes alone. Including us, there were only 2 tables of 4 so it was NOT at all busy. I ordered the gnocchi with guanciale and it tasted like chef boyardee. Nice atmosphere and cool location, but not worth the money in the least. Would not suggest.

My friend and I had excellent service from a male server yesterday afternoon. Very kind, attentive, and gave us the perfect amount of attention. Food was amazing and the happy hour selection is great. Very cute patio that is covered. Will be back!

We went here for dinner as a group of 11 for dinner to celebrate a bride, and we were so so happy with it!! They set up a sweet table for us and have our bride a free glass of champagne!
The food was a 11/10 all around, and our server Miranda was very nice and good at her job! Highly recommend!

Came for a birthday as a party of 10 including 4 kids/infant. Had a wonderful experience, service in particular was so patient and kind- our waitress was Rhylan. We were not an easy party (lots of musical chairs bc of kids), but Rhylan attended to us beautifully. We really enjoyed celebrating my mum here, food was delicious! Happy hour is great and we brought our own cake which they stored and prepared for all of us (for a fee, but worth the trouble honestly). We will be back! Thank you Rhylan!

TLDR;

Service was great! It was slow but they told us why and let us know as things happened in the kitchen.

The food was not compromising, it took a while sure. But it was hot, they compensated us for the wait and did I mention it was delicious?

Review below.

I liked this restaurant a lot (wish I had a picture so you all could see) personally I never order pasta at a restaurant, I used to work in a restaurant and it’s normally a high margin dish.

Because I used to work in a restaurant I would rather make a Parmesan crème at home, and buy fresh Peas, while also making the noodles in my Kitchen Aid.

They did an excellent job here, I wish I had gotten something else not because the fettuccini wasn’t delicious. But because if they nailed their simple pasta how good would everything else be? My guess probably 5 stars.

Thank you to our amazing hosts! I cannot wait to come back.

Grumpy staff. Terrible food. Putting a salads with biter lettuce on it is one of the most ridiculous menu choices I’ve seen. The menu has some very weird choices. I’m not sure what they think they are trying to go for.

Food is overly salted to the point where the food is secondary to the salt. This is not a one time occurrence but has happened on multiple occasions, across different meals, and throughout different times of the day (breakfasts, lunches, and dinners). Each time I have shared feedback with the staff but nothing has changed. The inability or unwillingness to take feedback is telling. Unfortunately I will not be retuning. If you must go, please ensure that you ask your waiter to tell the kitchen to hold the salt.

Delicious! Had a great meal here!! Had the calamari for starter then fettuccine and risotto (all 3 were gluten free)… all were 5/5.

We parked in the underground parking and the entrance to the restaurant was right there… perfect park job! They also offer complimentary 3 hr parking, I wish I knew that before I paid.
