The atmosphere is inviting and comfortable, making it an ideal location for any celebration, including family outings, thanks to a thoughtful kids menu. Drinks are also well-prepared, with strong and enjoyable options like the on-tap French 75, which has been a favorite for years. The restaurant offers a unique blend of Nouveau Franco-American cross cuisine, which has been praised as *chef's kiss*. The cozy environment and gentle staff create a great overall experience. The food is known for being SO GOOD, with well-seasoned greens that almost steal the scene alongside the star steak.

Popular dishes include ricotta toast, porchetta, scallops, gnocchi, brook trout, and walnut cookie, all receiving positive remarks. The wine list is impeccable, ensuring great selections for every guest.
