“First time we came in we didn't have a reservation and were pleasantly surprised by how busy the restaurant was. We were told that we couldn't get a table so we immediately made reservations for the next night and revisited. The spicy mussel appetizer was fantastic! The rigatoni with eggplant was to die for, the sauce was just delicious. I also enjoyed the shrimp and shishito pepper pasta. Chocolate mousse was also great :)“
“20230506 E-mailed Cafe Mamajuana on Facebook inquired about their hours, and they responded "I open sporadically and mainly cater! Thanks for asking. Just keep following and we post when we open for the day a few days ahead of time hopefully you get lucky"“
“Do I recommend it?! 1000%! It was a weekday night and I headed to the Italian restaurant next door. I was solo but there wasn't a seat available, even at the bar. But the greeter suggested I try their sister restaurant Soto in the basement next door. There is a sign but somehow I'd overlooked it. I walked down the steps to a pretty low key door and walked into a fairly small space with a large table and just a few two/four tops and some bar seating. The large table was full of tech execs sampling the large and well curated wine collection but the bar and other tables were open. This was a much more intimate place and was simply decorated and furnished. They share a kitchen with the place next door but have a simpler menu, though I believe you may be able to punch from the other restaurants menu for certain things, like if you needed a vegetarian or gluten free dish. I was warmly greeted and received my drink while i perused the menu. There was no pressure to place my order so i carefully considered what i wanted. I got the local mushrooms as an appetizer and they were unbelievable. After that I decided to get the special which was veal chop with potatoes. It was a very large and thick chop, cooked to perfection. I thought I'd wind up packing half of it home but it was so delicious that I finished the whole thing, nibbling even the bone. The server was very attentive but also let me have my space. This is a great place for a romantic or quiet dinner or if you want to treat yourself solo. Don't let the modest looking door from the street fool you; enter and prepare yourself for a fantastic meal.“
“Dedalus Wine was a cool Wine Market that my girlfriend and I found when a local told us about visiting Pine Street. Boy are we glad we came down here. Our sommelier was very friendly and helpful with choosing the right bottle of wine for us!“
