This is a hidden gem! We stopped here randomly while traveling home from Boston. We got zucchini pillows and beet salad for appetizers. They were fabulous and flavorful! For dinner we got gnocchi and chicken parm. Probably the best we have ever had! Delicious and good size portions. We had tiramisu for dessert. It was excellent! Great meal start to finish. Our waitress, the owner's daughter was personable , sweet, efficient and great to talk to. We will DEFINITELY be back!!!!

To be honest. Loved the spot. The food is really good, unassuming, flavorful. The staff’s quite courteous and helpful. I enjoyed sitting back away from the road but being outside in partial sun and shade. Inside looks lovely too!
