Somewhat charming neighborhood Italian resto specializing in Northern Italian cuisine. Nice wine list, decent food including some vegan options, and the service was unobtrusively attentive. The only disappointments eere the overly loud and aggressive music. It seemed like management had decided to create a “party atmosphere” and overreached. Unfortunately this is a pervasive trend in most restaurants that can instantly sour what would have been an otherwise pleasant experience. The food was not bad but all three of the dishes we had were somewhat excessively oily.

Was excited to come here , but that so called “steak” was the most disgusting thing I've ever had ,for $35 at that. I knew it was going to be bad when they brought it out in 5(!!!) minutes after i ordered. Really?What kind of steak cooks in 5 min? Not sure why they brought a steak knife with it, it was so flakey and soft (ew) that a fork was just enough . Couldn’t finish, felt so heavy with that puree that doesn’t even complement the dish. Had to drink lots of water to get rid of the aftertaste. Id be happy to get a refund. I feel like that was simply bad . You can’t call it a steak . It’s disrespectful . Tasted like canned food . Service was great, the place is wonderful. Just the dish ruined my experience.

Stumbled upon this spot while walking through town - the service was fantastic and the pork sandwich was the best bite of food I had in a while! If you’re looking for a cozy local spot with phenomenal food yet chic vibes, this is your place.

Just had brunch today and was looking forward to the crispy hash brown potatoes. Was very disappointed that they were nothing like the previous version. The food in general seems to have changed, and not for the better. Still a lovely neighborhood spot, but $10 for subpar potatoes and $8 for a meh side of toast was a disappointment.
Went for a friend's birthday and had a wonderful evening! The food was fantastic, especially the Lumache pasta and cauliflower... the chef's selection of meats, cheeses and olives came with a delicious pear puree sauce. I also enjoyed the New Rider cocktail quite a bit too. Both the chocolate pudding and pie were amazing, well balanced desserts. Had a lot of fun interacting with the serving staff and chef Nelson as well. Loved the lighting decor of old bicycle and oxcart wheels and sausage grinders. Only possible complaint was noise from how loud the other patrons got - but that's merely because of how busy it was, which I only mention in the case you're looking for a romantic evening, I just wouldn't choose peak hours on a weekend.

Although the place looks lovely, we had an actually insanely rude experience here. The place was booked for a private event but there was a sign to check inside for outdoor tables that were not being used for the private event. My boyfriend and I waited by the entryway for 30 seconds to see if anyone would come address us, and were chatting when this man closed the door on us. So we tried clarifying that we were going to ask for an outdoor table and the man immediately said "get out" as if we were forcing entry and physically pushed us out. Completely uncalled for; even having lived in New york for 7 years, I've never seen such rude treatment of people off of absolutely no basis.

The coffee and the service from the staff were excellent. However, I couldn’t stop wondering why they put chili-Sriracha sauce on top of the orecchiette.
I left most of the food but filled up on coffee and bread instead.

Lovely local spot! Menu changes fairly often, but most items are really good, though a little pricey.

Unfortunately encountered painfully bad service on my last few visits. Recently went to lunch and it took an hour to receive an egg sandwich. No real apology, and the restaurant was half full. Think it’s just poorly run at this point.
