“I had a birthday celebration at this restaurant. We sat near the cozy fireplace on a chilly night. The cheeseboard (varied cheeses, focaccia bread, honey, blackberries, nuts, jam, greens) and Pt. Judith calamari were beautifully presented. Excellent bottle of Pinot Grigio from Tuscany, Italy added to food, Staff was very accomodating. I enjoyed mussels, scallops, little necks over pasta in scampi sauce. Others had the salmon as well as the bolognese. It's a very roomy, quiet setting near the water. Staff came out to sing happy birthday with a luscious ice cream dessert with a candle on top. I was pleasantly surprised. We will return to this place for sure!”

“Probably the best Easter Brunch we've had in years! The two of us were seated right on time for our 2pm reservation at a spacious 4 top and served water quickly. Kris our server was bright and attentive throughout the dining experience! We started delicious iced tea and an order of Pâté de Champagne with pickled vegetables, cornichons, arugula, and slices of grilled country bread, followed by their velvety cauliflower soup with crispy capers! Wonderful! We both chose their unique eggs Benedict served over a nest of country ham and potato latkes! We finished our repast with coffee and a shared crepe dessert filled with lemon ricotta and berries. Outstanding! All of our food was piping hot and delivered in perfect timing from appetizer to dessert. The classic French Bistro style dining room is always warm and inviting filled with natural light, a great neighborhood view out the windows and wonderful artwork throughout! Check was reasonable for the quality and quantity of food served, and we included an extra 5% to the standard 20% included in the check for exceptional service from every staff member who attended us. We may have to make this a yearly tradition!”

“To the incompetent individuals @dewolftavern who stiffed us on the exorbitant take out Thanksgiving meal you provided missing half the turkey, gravy and the mashed potatoes we payed for and drove a half hour to pick up.... To the girl who insisted after my father asked if everything in our order was in the bag that it was, to your manager who was unhelpful and should be dealt with accordingly and whomever portioned out the meal should be reprimanded as well. Our oven is broken on Thanksgiving and your incompetence made it an even greater day.

“Just had dinner here on Sunday evening. We were all blown away with every appetizer, entrée, and dessert! You could taste the tremendous love and care in each bite! We happened to be served by the co-owner, Adriana, who was wearing many hats that night, and she did so with such warmth and charisma…and a 1000 watt smile! Her sense of humor and positive energy was so infectious and we bantered back and forth all evening. She then sent out her equally kind-hearted, humble, and gracious husband and co-owner Paul, to regale us with family stories and we just laughed until closing. We had such an unforgettably amazing experience…and now have a new favorite eatery! Such a gem…we recommend this family-style Italian experience in the highest regard!”

Would love to return over summer to enjoy being in the water.”
