    We arrived at 6 to be told that the kitchen had just closed. We should have been contacted earlier if they were closing.

    The ambiance was sterile. The tables The food took along time and was over priced and subpar. I was very surprised considering it had 4 star review. Perhaps it’s just a sign of the time. Staff was polite and professional I would not go back

    Food was just ok. Wine list meh. But seated on the deck outside listening to the live music was wonderful. Emma Teizzi was playing.

    We had drinks (I enjoyed the Chardonnay) and appetizers, which were amazing (taquitos, brussels sprouts, coconut shrimp). Staff was super friendly and helpful. It was nice to sit outside on the patio.

    Made reservations but literally only guests though a few came later. One server-bartender. Was great and worked hard to keep everyone happy as more people came.

    Please don’t go to this restaurant. It was awful. Chicken picatta was just egg coated chicken. Burger was bland. Was really a waste of a dinner. Looked cute from the outside and there was an amazing girl singing and playing the guitar. Too many great restaurants in town to waste your time here.
