- KKristinavipChicago / Illinois •46 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoSuperior service at this eclectic spot. Interesting menu with options for everyone, particularly if you are adventurous. Excellent craft cocktails. Upstairs dining area atmosphere is comfortable and inviting. Not too loud even when full unlike the lower level which was loud due to the large bar area. Would enjoy that too if I was younger. Excellent experience overall.More infoHerb & WoodPrice: Expensive• Californian• Little Italy•4.7
- KKellyGreater Boston •7 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThe mussels were the biggest hit— and I am a Maine girl who loves her shellfish. The place was buzzing and I was so happy that the New York steak came out perfectly done and hot. Seafood pasta was delicious. Our server was a real pro—she had lots of tables but was always there when we needed her. The young man assisting her with clearing and cleaning for next course was very efficient and friendly. It was my husband’s birthday and they— unbeknownst to me—brought out complimentary cake and candle. We all want to find out who made that cake cuz it was so moist and tasty!! This was our third time here and we will be back again for sure.More infoC-LevelPrice: Moderate• Cocktail Bar• Downtown•4.7
