The oysters were so fresh and big and the arugula salad was unreal. Such a good experience! I just wish they had more wine by the glass options. The service was a bit slow but that’s fine.“

“This is one of my favorite go to stops. I love the craft cocktails, they are very classy with a lot of history behind them.

It is a unique atmosphere, it has charm, a tropical upscale feel, but very relaxed and casual at the same time. The bartenders work very hard and make a perfect cocktail every time.

The food is also very good and unique. One of my favorite dishes is the Shrimp with roasted garlic and polenta.

Every time I'm in town, I stop in for a visit.“

The staff was super friendly the hostess even remembered our name from when we made our in person reservation. It’s beautiful outside and inside. It’s very cozy inside and they also have a beautiful outdoor patio seating amongst star lights. Just follow the rainbow arch.“

“The Patio has always been a favorite spot in town, but what really makes it shine is the people—and no one embodies that more than Martini. They have a way of turning dinner into an experience: sharp, charming, and always making you feel at home. Whether it’s steering you toward the right dish or keeping the whole table laughing, Martini has that perfect mix of professionalism and personality that makes you want to come back again and again. Around here, we all know The Patio is special—but when Martini’s your server, it’s unforgettable.“

On a recommendation, we checked out this place for lunch. Uncrowded on a weekday, we made our way in. Started with some cocktails which were well constructed and delicious. For food, companion and I each ordered the fried chicken. I have to say, the chicken was perfectly fried and still juicy. The breadi g wasn't over salted, which is so common these days. And the twice fried, hand cut fries were spot on too!

We'll be back again!“

I had reservations for 5:30 (when they open), but the restaurant filled up quick! The ambience is AMAZING. I felt transported to a speakeasy. I started with the carpaccio, which was to die for. I ended up having the Veal Francese and it was perfect. Our waitress was very kind, and very patient. I highly recommend coming here for a fancy dining experience in Ptown.“

We were the only ones there. How could you have listed 6:55 as the only reservation for that date?? I will never ever use Open Table to reserve a table again.“
