My husband and I had the best experience here. We came for the wine (which was awesome) but the food was incredible! I unexpectedly had one of the most delicious meals of my life! The staff are welcoming and delightful. I really wasn’t expecting such a fantastic, memorable dinner. All the stars!
Top tier everything. Excellent service with the warmest owner and staff ever. Delicious food, the meatballs are so perfectly made, pasta is divine. Wine and cocktails are next level amazing. Locals love it here. Great happy hour too.
