Our server was not very attentive to empty glasses. He also made sure to dump a ton of pulp in each drink. He was also pouring from a strange angle causing messes on the table and he didn’t even try to clean it up. Food was mid at best, the potatoes were undercooked and the eggs rubbery. Will not be back.

The food was good, not great, except the pesto. It’s outstanding. We were seated in a corner by the bar where the wait staff was always trying to get through. Wait staff was overworked. Very loud. Very loud.
