The food was truly amazing! We had the scallops and the burrata appetizers - both were fantastic! We shared the ravioli, the squid ink pasta, and the vegan vegetable dish, and again, they were incredible! We had great service from everyone, the drinks were great, we were able to hang out there for a few hours. Would recommend this spot

Excellent experience as always. Look for some broadening of healthy snacks when possible. Last evenings cocktails stood out from the visiting bartenders from Houston.
