Since the day it opened, this place has always been a favorite of mine. I've never been disappointed with any appetizers, dishes, or wines. The owners are some of the sweetest down to earth people, and they aim to put a smile on your face. The servers have always been amazing, and the atmosphere is elegant yet has a homey feel to it. It's a very cozy little hangout great for a girls' night out or a romantic dinner on date night. The food is delicious, and the wines are yum! I highly recommend anyone and everyone to try this delightful place!

Restaurant only had a handful of patrons on a Friday. It smelled like sewage, so we did not stay.

This is a wine bar that also offers a few Italian dishes. Slooooow service. Long delays for food and long wait to settle the bill after running the card. I asked for salad dressing on the side but salad came to me drenched. They didn’t have any pesto or any soda pop the night we went. We barely made it to the show at the arts center even though we skipped desert and reserved 2 hrs in advance. If you are going to a show at the arts center, allow at least 2.5 hrs even though it’s just up the street.I take no joy in a negative review, but we took visiting friends there and frankly it was embarrassing. Maybe it was just a perfect storm of mishaps that don’t happen all the time, but all I can say is that our experience that night wasn’t good. We didn’t send food back or complain because we didn’t want further delays that would make us late.

Kids are not welcome here. Was told they were shortstaff even though the restaurant was completely empty when we walked in. Very disappointing.

We were the only ones in the restaurant when we went for brunch, but the ambiance was great! The restaurant has great light. The wood furniture felt very comfortable and homey. The service was excellent, and we found the menu options very customizable. It almost felt like we were at a bed and breakfast where we had a personal chef! We definitely enjoyed our meal and would recommend this restaurant to others.

When we got in, it was a beautiful secret gem of a place. So classy and elegant, there were only two other couples seated. The service was wonderful, the menu was a bit overwhelming but we got suggestions from our server. We started with two glasses of wine with bread/butter and the spinach salad. They split it for us without us even having to ask. It was so good. We finished our wine and ordered lavender French 75s. Delicious. We didn’t wait long for our entrees and they were impeccable. He ordered the Nawlins shrimp risotto and I got the linguini bolognese. Flawless. We were too full for dessert, but the list was impressive. I absolutely enjoyed myself and will be back!
Service was excellent. Meat and cheese app was good. Prices are very reasonable. Wine was good. Weird that there were only 3-4 other tables for the hour we were there. Chicken parm was below average, tuna was good. Old school Italian that has a lot of potential, but they were out of 3 items that we asked for- seems strange on a slow night in the middle of the week
We just moved into neighborhood and am so happy we have such great place with scratch made food with local ingredients throughout their menu so close! The beer selection is great and local. They had a lot of wine options that looked interesting but I am more of a beer person. I got the bruschetta and it was awesome! My husband normally wouldn't eat bruschetta but it looked so yummy he gave it a try and actually loved it! I am looking forward to many more experiences here!

A true Mesa gem, the food is great and the atmosphere is even better. Music is calm and quiet, allowing us to enjoy conversation over dinner which was excellent. Great service as well. Pricing is more than reasonable.
