    Service at the bar and cocktails were delicious! Table seating was very comfortable and the food was so delicious… service was great…. Will be back… the steamed little neck clams with bread were so good my husband could not stop lapping up the sauce! Fettuccini with shrimp and leek sauce also so good!!

    The food as always is very good. Unfortunately our table was not wiped off after our main course which is the norm. I found that very disappointing.

    Genuinely so disappointed on my latest experience. From disappointing food to full on rude staff and the fire alarm going off mid dinner was just the cherry on the cake. Let’s start here I ordered the mussel appetizer special as an entree after adding pasta to it, got it brough out out with our other apps (not a big deal) but then proceeded to watch it sit on the window of the kitchen for over 30 min then brought to me dry and with a rock hard bread, had to call over the manager as our waitress was honestly nowhere to be found thought the majority of our stay, my friend found several bones and a hair ( she had her hair up in a bun was definitely not hers) in her chicken sandwich, because the entree issue was already so dismissive by staff we didn’t even bother to bring it up. Fire alarms went off mid dinner that we understand is not their fault but to not even have it addressed as the fire department is walking through the restaurant was a bit alarming. Had to approach the bar to ask for more water bc the waitress was honestly no even checking in on us until the bill came then she actually stopped by. You would think management would try and do something for us for all the inconvenience but all we got was a dismissive “sorry”. We love the drinks and this place just hope they get it together next time we come that will definitely be a while from now.

    I’d say this spot was solid/good, not great. The food was fine, though the prices felt a bit high for what you get in terms of flavor. Our waitress was very kind, but service was on the slower side. That actually worked out well for a laid-back afternoon catching up with a friend—it gave us plenty of time to chat between drinks, apps, and mains. That said, if I were in a rush or just looking for a quicker sit down meal, it wouldn’t be my go to. What really stood out was the ambiance. Relaxed, stylish, and perfect for a casual hangout. I’d definitely come back to sit at the bar, enjoy a few drinks, and share some appetizers. It’s that kind of place.
