Raf's is a French/Italian bakery and restaurant with a casual setting upfront and a more upscale dining area in the back. The atmosphere is cozy and elegant, making it a great place for a leisurely breakfast or brunch. The menu offers wonderful choices, featuring high-quality ingredients and well-executed dishes. Highlights include the tuna tartare, which is layered with flavor, crab and corn ravioli, and a possibly exceptional burger. The salads are consistently balanced and beautifully dressed. Brunch remains a delight, and the waitstaff, including attentive servers like Jacob, strikes a good balance between helpfulness and giving customers space. The restaurant has a charming, European feeling interior, creating a relaxed ambiance perfect for a date night. While the food is delicious, it can be on the expensive side. Reservations are recommended, and although the restaurant is generally good, some have noted that it does not quite reach greatness. Desserts like the white chocolate caramelized budino are a highlight. Overall, Raf's continues to impress with its lovely ambiance, tasty food, and warm, professional staff, making it a highly recommended spot for a nice dinner or brunch.
