The menu for dinner features dishes like Maine Lobster Ravioli, Clams with Saffron Spaghetti, Dry Aged Roseda Beef Striploin, and Mushroom Risotto. Their Key Lime Pie and cocktails are highly praised, especially the mezcal cucumber cocktail, which is a top seller. The restaurant has a cozy yet modern decor, with an open kitchen and an outdoor patio perfect for enjoying meals in good weather.

Delicious brunch and excellent service!

We had a lovely brunch.

Food- we did the prefix and it did not disappoint. Dishes were well thought out, flavorful, and good portion sizes. Nice mix of salads, soups, burgers, fish, Benedict, we got it all!

Drinks- love the bottomless drink option for brunch. Mimosa sangria or margarita, yes please.

Space- good lighting, open layout, nice wood and simple decor. Patio is nice too, yet no shade.

Service- Juliana was attentive and friendly.
