    Went here for lunch with a friend and we both ordered a panini sandwich. They were excellent. This is a nice quiet little restaurant where you're able to talk with friends and apparently I'm not the only one that thinks so because the restaurant was really filled with groups of people who just were meeting up for lunch. I would definitely go here for dinner with my husband.

    This place has such great food. And the staff is wonderful. I do wish they would elevate the service just a little bit to match the how good the food is and the price point.  I think when entrees come out they should be set in front of the person who ordered them without anyone having to ask who ordered it (use of seat numbers). I have also seen plates stacked on the table as they are being cleared so that the person can take many at one time. Drinks should come out on a tray, even just one or two.  These small points would really elevate the diners’ experience. However, don’t let them stop you going there, it really is a treat.

    Birthday dinner, but no one asked. It was busy given it was the Friday of Mother’s Day weekend, but service was quite slow. They were accommodating of my shellfish allergy but were not particularly friendly.
