This place was really spectacular. The food was impeccable, our waitress (one of husband and wife team owners) was so knowledgeable and her enthusiasm was contagious. Excellent selection of cocktails and wines. Now, this is a whole evening experience which may infuriate some Americans who are used to been hustled in and out of a restaurant but it was perfectly paced for me. Took about 3.5 hours. Don’t skip dessert！

Absolutely outstanding! Abby is wonderful and we really enjoyed our conversation with her. And Rogan definitely knows how to cook - the food was so so good. It’s a lovely restaurant, a great atmosphere and I love how the two of them run their business. We had an amazing evening and would always come back :)

Lovely intimate and cozy dining experience. Excellent fine dining experience, Abby was very knowledgeable about the wines and menu with excellent recommendations. We really enjoyed our appetizers (garlicy chili gulf shrimp, house made gnocchi), main entrees (grilled beef sirloin, prosciutto wrapped monkfish, house made tagliatelle), and desserts (homemade Earl Gary ice cream, incredible maple creme brûlée). We loved spending time chatting and enjoying the nice slower Ludlow...
