The best steak tartar I have eaten for the last year, delicious .
Service was pretty good and fast
Inside is small and it’s kind of to loud but after 3 mimosas don’t care ?

I have been twice now. The service is sluggish - servers are just understaffed, as is the kitchen. It shouldn't take 30+ minutes between salad and entree. The food is ok - the dishes are ambitious, just not quite right. Pork chop dry, squash ravioli filling dry and slightly bitter and drizzling balsamic to sweeten it was just wrong with the seasonings

We were celebrating 2 birthdays and had a group of 4. They brought us each a glass champagne to toast the celebration. So nice! We we all hungry, but we're afraid the dishes would be large, so we split several, including apps antipasto (large!) Bruschetta, Steak tartar (soggy bread) and Mains, Ribeye (just ok), Scallops with Risotto ( delish!), shrimp salad ( good). Overall, the place was nice (and walking distance) and service lovely, but I believe we just ordered the wrong food selection this time.

Really great dining on the patio. Was pet friendly and was offered a water bowl as well! Food was excellent. Especially enjoyed the Steak Tartare with the pastry! You'll have to find street parking for this, we were lucky to find one right at front.

Excellent service including Leah our server. Celebrated an event and they pulled out all the stops. Food was delicious and based on a fresh summer menu. Will definitely return again and highly recommend to all!
