What an elegant place! We stopped in for dinner at the bar one night, and it was such a lovely surprise. Can't wait to go back!

Ordered delivery: a large white pizza with mushrooms and onions for 30 dollars and received a small cheese with no toppings. Pathetic, overpriced, disappointed ☹️

Our go to restaurant in Newtown. Amazing food, fantastic cocktails, and awesome atmosphere. They have a great patio area & a wonderful happy hour. The owner, Rick, is so personable and the staff is always so friendly. Could not recommend this place enough.

Service there is great. I had the gnocchi pesto... it is a very underwhelming dish. It comes in a soup bowl and is a very small portion... there was very little flavor and the gnocchi was either over worked or had to much flour... they aren't light fluffy pillows, they are dense flavorless imposter's.
It didn't take an obscene amount of time for my food to arrive, but it did take longer than you'd expect with a simple cream sauce and a gnocchi that cooks so fast....
Since three top layer of food was a different temperature than the bite under it, it leads me to believe that part of my wait time could have been my food sitting in the window...?
It's a nice place but you will pay a lot of money for small, but somewhat well constructed dish. There is nothing awful about this place, but not worth making a special trip to

This place completely blew me away! The moment I walked in, I felt like I’d discovered a hidden treasure—beautiful ambiance, warm energy, and a true love for food in every detail. The Summer Thyme Bees Knees and the Manhattan Nero were a refreshing start. The fried meatballs tasted just like something a nonna would make—tender and full of flavor. The fettuccine limone was bright and creamy, and the Sunday gravy? A hug in a bowl. Everything tasted homemade and prepared with so much heart. This place isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an experience.

I had octopus, which was cooked to perfection, followed by Fettuccine Limone, which was also delicious.
Phenomenal food and gorgeous ambiance. We had an app, two main courses with drinks, and dessert- everything was 10/10. We will be back frequently.

Great dinner as always! The outdoor area is one of our favorites (the bar and dining room are gorgeous as well) and the owner and staff are beyond hospitable and accommodating. Cocktails and food are creative and delicious. My husband and I love to enjoy date night here and the owner went above and beyond to make it special. Thank you for a wonderful evening out!
This place is exactly what I was looking for.
Went there for a solo dinner. Food was super tasty. Pasta was cooked perfect and the short rib, meatball and sausage in my dish were flavorful and tender.
Jim was tending bar. He was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive.
Drinks were good as well!
Highly recommend.

Had the best time at this spot for a girls' bottomless brunch! The food was absolutely delicious—every dish hit the mark. The drinks were strong, fun, and flowed perfectly the whole time. What really stood out was the service—so friendly and incredibly attentive without ever being overbearing. Definitely one of the most enjoyable brunch experiences I’ve had. Already planned my next visit!

Decent food. Terrible parking. Terrible acoustics - noisy as hell and the policy of the owner is that a MANAGER needs to authorize the use of a prepaid gift card we received as a gift. Waited 20 minutes for the server to “find a manager”. The point of sale machine should be able to see if it’s a valid payment form, apparently this owner doesn’t trust his staff and would rather move less people through, and inconvenience patrons to the point of significant delay which is unacceptable. Never again!

Can’t comment on the rest of the menu, but the pizza was borderline inedible. Just terrible. The plus is that the service was good. May give it another shot and avoid the pizza.

A great find. Had lunch while visiting family in the area. The pizzas, gnocchi bolognese and veal millenese were
excellent with very fresh ingredients. We had attentive, friendly service and the enjoyed the pleasant decor. Highly recommend.
