Neighborhood gem like none other. Charming ambience, fit for foodies and hospitality at its finest. Darius is the consummate host. Most recently he made our wedding anniversary dinner extra memorable by sending over this dessert. The candles added the extra special touch that this restaurant is known for. In love with this restaurant!

Such a wonderful experience always with great food, friendly staff, and swanky ambiance! Love it here. It’s just a tad expensive but definitely worth it. I just don’t think we should be charged $12 to open a bottle of wine is all but when you go to celebrate a wonderful girl, you’ll pay just about anything. Will be back because I love it.

Abby remembered my wine and my son’s craft beer order from our last visit. That’s the way it started. Never been before on a Tuesday - it is half off all bottles of wine. Pizza as always out quickly and tasty. Slight char. Apparently the owner has also bought the Good Egg franchise few doors down.
