This is a very nice lovely restaurant. The only problem is this girl who works there. This bussgirl. God have mercy! Please provide her with a deodorant! It's honestly very unpleasant to have her near by! Mainly when the weather gets hot. I mean no need to wear perfume but deodorant please! Make your servers wear deodorant!!!! It's just way too much! 🤢

I had a fantastic dinner at this place. The food was prepared in a way that made me feel like I had my own personal chef. There were many flavors to discover, each offering a delightful experience for the taste buds. Everyone greeted me with a smile, making it feel as if we were old friends catching up after a long time apart. My date and I were thoroughly impressed by the ambiance and the lively neighborhood outside. I’ll definitely return to enjoy more of this delicious food!

They broke a glass of red wine when we sat at the bar splattering my white shirt, and only wiped up the glass. Bad form. Food OK but not special.

Dietary restrictions: Nothing is labeled for Glutens. A vegetarian could get a meal here, vegan would find it hard.
Parking: There is parking to be found, but a lot of it is neighborhood parking so it could become a challenge.
Kid-friendliness: If you were to get there at kid hours, you could probably sit outside with your kiddo. The menu doesnt seem to have much kids would be interested in. However in my experience, where there is pasta, restaurants will usually always make kids off menu butter noodles, if asked.

After having read reviews below, I just realized they already added tip to my bill without telling me, thereby getting an additional tip. This should actually be considered criminal. Outrageous.
Let's talk about the wine service. I brought a $200 bottle of Pinot noir. They opened it away from the table for some reason. They came back, and in front of my date, made a face and said the cork was moldy, as though the wine had gone bad or something. (For people who know wine, a cork will get moldy in a cellar due to humidity and dark conditions). Let's move past the unnecessary embarrassment in front of my date, the wine then tasted off. Mold often grows on properly stored bottles, and is not known to effect the flavor at all. I consulted a Facebook of wine industry and hospitality professionals, suggested the possibility that it was just an off bottle, and everyone seems to agree that the more likely scenario is exactly what I suspected and feared, that my bottle may have been switched out for a cheaper bottle so that they could enjoy my bottle after service. Indeed it is very coincidental that I've never ever had this happen before, and it happened to happen the one time my wine was opened not in my presence (one hospitality industry member on Facebook advised that it was highly unusual that they would not open the bottle table side, for this very reason).
Lovely neighborhood place. Cozy, quiet, relaxed. Great food and great service.

I really really really want to give this place 5 stars. The food is very good. The wine list is excellent. The service, however, is so very sloppy. For forty dollars a plate I should not have to ask for silverware or serving utensils or flag the servers to order a drink after sitting for 20 mins or generally remind the staff of their job. I'm not unsympathetic...I worked in service for 15 years and I know how hard the restaurant business is right now. But honestly the lack of attention just makes me want to stay home.

Fantastic selection of food and always good service! Lovely spot in Rockridge which is great for a casual dinner or a nice date night. Lovely covered patio in the back! Cocktails are delicious - they always have good bartenders. Menu changes seasonally although there are some staples like the moules fries. Parking wasn't too bad on the street (we dined in the middle of the week) but the weekend can be harder so be prepared to take extra time looking for parking or walking a couple of blocks. Close to BART. Highly recommend the Georgian khachapuri and stone fruit salad!!!
