I've dined here and I've gotten takeout and both times were really positive. The takeout food specifically was cooked to order and really tasty, even though I was running slightly late, and made it back to the hotel still warm despite it being quite chilly out!

Stopped in for dinner while in town for work. Sat at the bar upstairs. The bartenders are extremely pleasant and chatty. I ordered the burrata salad and the bolognese. Both were excellent. Unfortunately I didn’t have any ability to eat dessert though the dessert menu looked great.

On a Wednesday night the restaurant was pretty empty, and oddly a couple and another single person crammed in at the bar with me instead of selecting one of the many available tables.

Great Italian food at the wharf. Service was ok, not particularly attentive or proactive. Nice ambience with a token/bookend water view. I loved the spicy rigatoni and my wife liked her cacio e Pepe
