We met our friends for the MS fine to donate event and had such a great time. Food was fantastic, service was prompt. We enjoyed the evening. Bread pudding was amazing. Loved the charcuterie board.

Wide variety of wine, delicious menu ranging from tapas to share to pasta dishes to other main entrees. The front patio with fire pits is beautiful. Seating inside is nice too as it's set in a very beautiful old home on Main Street.

Our server was great and the food was amazing!! Came here for my husband's birthday and we were both super happy with our overall experience. The lighting was dim and it felt very cozy. We had the charcuterie board, the crab cakes and one of the flat breads. We definitely are coming back and would love to try their patio seating once it warms up!

This is one of the many cool eateries you'll find on the historic downtown St Charles Main Street. What's unique here is the Tapas menu, and with the portion sizes it affords you the opportunity to try several especially if you're sharing because you can try a variety and not feel like you've eaten too much. Top it off with one of their many excellent cocktails and you're set.

The firepit was going and it was getting chilly out. My friend and I were walking, deciding what to do next. We went to stand near the fireplace to discuss whether we were going inside, as there was no one on the patio at all. Less than 3 minutes went by, and a server came out. She didn't ask us if we wanted anything, but immediately said that the patio was for customers only. We might have been customers, but decided not to be at that moment. Why have a fireplace going if no one can stand near it for a few minutes? It was not a warm atmosphere at all.

Hi. We went for the Galentine's Day event. Upon walking in the restaurant you were immediately deafened by the noise level. It was awful. Servers and other employees are professional and friendly. We had a 3:30 reservation, the last time slot available for the event. When we arrived we were told we only had 30 minutes before the kitchen closed and 1 1/2 hours before the restaurant closed. The event announcement said that for a party of 4 we'd have two hours! The food was excellent. I had one of the special martinis and couldn't drink it due to how overly strong it was. I then ordered a mocktail that was so tart it was difficult to drink. Overall, while I'd go back (during a slow time for them), it would not be to sit indoors, the noise level is much to high to enjoy yourselves. Everyone had to yell just to be heard so that made it even worse. Suggestion for the restaurant - don't sell out if it means that your customers are going to have to yell to have a conversation. I would not go back for a special event.
Excellent food! Would / will visit again.
