    The food was very good and the service was adequate. The only negative was that the tops of the wooden barriers between rooms were extremely dirty and dusty giving the experience a little yuck factor.

    We chose our time so we could have brunch but the restaurant was not serving it even though it was still listed on the website. We were very disappointed!

    Catching up with old friends and it was a wonderful setting. Comfy booth, not too loud, we could really talk. Food was delicious. The only thing that was a little off putting was that they were out of things on the wine list-one white was completely not available and second choice only had one bottle left. At least our server was honest with us. This was a Thursday night. Hopefully, a shipment was arriving the next day.

    Beet salad and branzino paired with a sancere were exceptional.

    Had to flag someone down to get service. Bar music was loud and mostly computer generated.
