“Pasting my copy from over on Yelp. TL; DR it's freaking amazing and delicious and awesome but we had a couple that were hardcore making out down the bar from us and it was killing the vibe.This spot has been on my to-try list forever. A few months ago I was invited to lunch with a winemaker here and that experience was exceptional (but not what everyone is going to experience) so I bumped it up higher on the list.They are open on Monday nights and for a short time I was working in hospitality and living in a town where NADA is open on Monday nights so Kris and I headed up route 7 to try this. I'm so glad we did.We didn't have a reservation but were able to get seated at the bar instantly. The staff was great and quick and fun, kind of picking up on the vibe of the guests and being more or less chatty depending.The lighting is gorgeous and the space has got a great, elegant but casual vibe. You can tell tremendous care is taken with their food and beverage program. We started with a cocktail before each enjoying a pasta dish with wine. I had to get their house-made pistachio icecream to finish because I never say no to pistachio icecream.Right-priced and just an excellent choice. Deducted one star because there was a couple sitting down the bar from us that was MAKING OUT. I'm not talking a little affection on date night. I'm talking foreplay. I get that the customer is always right but as a diner, on the short side of an L-shaped bar, I couldn't help but see it and I personally think they should have been asked to stop. Sometimes you have to let peole know their behavior isn't a good fit. Yes, it's dimly lit and romantic but no one wants to watch people licking each others molars.Looking forward to going back and will continue to even if people are making out every time.“
