    I had such a wonderful meal here! Every dish was beautifully executed and full of flavor. The arancini were perfectly crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside — a great way to start the meal. The baby kale Caesar was a fresh twist on the classic, with just the right balance of tangy dressing and crunch. The cold tomato soup was a surprise highlight — incredibly refreshing, with a rich depth of flavor that made it feel both light and satisfying. But the real standout was the blue crab agnolotti. Delicate, luxurious, and packed with sweet crab flavor — each bite was a treat. The service was attentive and the atmosphere relaxed yet elegant. I’ll definitely be coming back!

    It was a slow, early evening reservation, and the chef was out talking to guests at their tables. It was only the second night they were open. There were only 4 tables seated at the time. After speaking to a couple at the first table, he walked right past the table I was at with my daughter and stopped to talk to the couple seated behind us. After that table, he walked to a table where one gentleman was eating. He never aknowledged us. I can only think it was because I am a single mom with a teenager who couldn't possibly be worth his time. The steak was overcooked and poor quality. We would have tried a dessert, but the server didn't come back to our table for about 15 minutes after we were finished eating dinner. We had to leave for our event. We won't return.
