I chose the Linguini with Clams, Flavorful perfection. I will return, next time -- a partner to share, a glass (or two) of wine, a beautiful salad and star of the show, tasty delight! Garlic was mellow, oil/butter soft and experience, excellent.

One of my favorites in this town! This place is always buzzing with energy. Expect a wait and it’s worth it. Put your name in and go for a walk and check out downtown. Delish food, great service, and we always walk away feeling good. Scored the window seat this time ?

Food was very disappointing. Very loud people at the bar and waitstaff was playing around with people at the bar. Don't think we will be

Went in on a busy Friday night, luckily found a spot at the bar. Really nice atmosphere, drinks were great, food was pretty good but really quite expensive for what we got. The lurking mustache man made us feel slightly unwelcome and seemed to be putting a bad vibe out for the staff.

Great local place or if you're driving thru from Tahoe. So good! I love their mussels app. Had their chicken picatta pasta with a ceaser salad. Always fresh and made to order. Also, I love the pizza! You can't do wrong!!!!

The owner refused to serve us, embarrassed me in public.and made us leave because I have a medic alert service dog. It is against the law to not allow us to dine. He was rude and didn’t care. We will be filing a complaint with the ADA.

Honest review of the food: it's better than the Olive Garden. That's not saying a lot but at least at the Olive Garden when your there your family or something like that.Quite the experience here .I have been here twice.......eaten here only one time.The first time I watched the man with bad mustache run 3 people off. I thought it was odd and it caused a bit of a scene, but a party of three wanted a specific table that could accommodate 5. The owner/manager wouldn't let them sit where they asked to sit and became argumentative. So they left obviously frustrated. I found it odd but didn't know the details and pith waiter was cool so what ever. Our party actually laughed because that table sat empty for the rest of our time we were here.Fast forward to tonight. Party of 4, my wife has a broken foot and we were seated on the small patio out front. An employee moved two two person tables together. To accommodate my wife's broken foot, that is in a cast, I scooted the tables over about 12 inches. We were alone on the patio and the last table furthest away from the patio entry.The strange manager mustache man was trying to stop me from adjusting the table over to accommodate the giant cast on my wife's leg.I told him to look at her leg she needed a little bit of room. He said it was against policy....I really doubt theirs a policy in place to move a metal patio table a few inches to the left.I was taken back by how rude, unprofessional and unaccommodating he was toward someone with a temporary disability.It was blessing in disguise. We all walked/hobbled down the street to The Farm Table Restaurant. The food was awesome there and the staff was so cool and accommodating. They even let us scoot the table over a few inches and brought an extra chair to prop my wife's cast up on.So watch out for the guy with the bad mustache. Before you sit or move check to make sure you don't violate his policies. He would rather lose out on literally hundreds of dollars before he lets you scoot a table over for a handicapped person.Wheelchair accessibility: Manager was unnecessarily un accommodating for a person with a broken foot.

Wow. This place is as good as any Italian restaurant in Little Italy in NYC (Manhattan or The Bronx)! The pesto is a creamy masterpiece. The staff is great and the place is small and cozy. We'll be going back often.Parking: The parking garage usually has space and it's about 200 feet from the restaurant.
