Outstanding. Stunning flavours, beautiful presentation and a genuine care for cuisine. I don’t give 5 stars lightly. The chef is clearly very passionate.
Recommend 5-6 plates. The waiters are super helpful to ask. You need to book in advance - unlikely to be able to turn up and get a spot.
This place is now a favourite for me and my husband.
Only negative comment is wasn’t any non-alcoholic options. Trying for a baby so would have been nice to have something to drink other than water.

Intimate, impeccably thought out cuisine, great wait staff — absolutely give it a try!

Charming neighborhood bistro that punches above its weight class. Food was delicious, fresh, and inventive.

Amazing wine, super kind staff, amazing food and awesome experience overall. What an sweet little spot. Overall trust the staff when they recommend something- everything our server recommended were the best thing we ate tonight.

Amazing meal on Saturday. Squid salad and squash toast were next level. Highly recommend

We had a fantastic dining experience! This place is welcoming, The food was incredible — we tried almost everything on the seasonal menu and honestly couldn’t pick a favorite. Being served by the owner added a personal touch that made the night even more special. Can’t wait to come back!

Great food and the small restaurant is cute

Sure, food/service/vibe. But, there's an ineffable quality to this place that we felt last night. There was a lift that occurred where each element of cuisine (ingredients, chef choices, menu, cook, presentation), service (warm yet appropriate, neighborhood but knowledgeable, measured but not aloof), vibe (see above and place within context of WINE). Add it all up and it somehow became even greater than the sum of its parts into some convivial and gustatory "other." We live a little bit too far to remember to pursue and time a reservation more than the 6 times we've been over the past couple years - we so envy the people we saw dropping by for a later glass and a few dishes. But, we shall continue to make the effort despite the distance. In other words, this is a destination spot that behaves like a neighborhood joint. Just fantastic and somehow getting better and better...
Our best dining experience in 2025, as my partner puts it accurately! The food is phenomenal, and I am genuinely surprised how come there is no heat around this place on the social media! The dishes were so yummy that I couldn’t choose a favourite one! The trout was insane, the combination of ingredients in the grilled parsnips was mind blowing, the pasta was so good that you wanted it to never end, and the sauce for the crab toast was one of the closest ones I’ve tried to the unmatched sauce from Theodora! Also, I have never been a fan of apple pies or tarts, but these guys know what they’re doing! I admire the chef’s risk taking skills in coming up with strange sounding and yet amazing combinations: who would think of pepper and ice cream? We will be back no doubt

Grabbed a reservation here ahead of a concert at Barclay's - it had been on my "want to go" list. The restaurant is quite chilly; especially if you're seated near the door. The space only fits 14 guests total. The food was fine - the dishes are very pricey - a small cheese selection was nearly $20. I would recommend splitting the dishes if dining with another person. Overall, expect to pay $$$ for an OK meal.

Intentional dishes, distinct flavors, precision cooking. Well sourced food and beverages. The entire experience is balanced and elegant without any fuss. I know my way around a restaurant - this place excels. Reminds my why I live in NY.

Every time I go here, I am blown away by how this small restaurant could have such a perfect line up of dishes. The highest quality foods, amazing wines, great cocktails, and great service. Don’t miss the crab toast (if they have it! The menu changes a lot but it’s always good)!

One of my favorite local spots. Very tiny restaurant, so the vibes are super cozy and intimate, and the food never misses.
