About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
We are a chef-owned restaurant that explores American and global flavors. Expect an awesome dinner of sharing plates, incredible cocktails, an award winning wine list and rockin' tunes! A mural wall by graffiti artist iSurge, lush tropical greenery and an herb garden helps set the mood on our outdoor patio. Recipients of consecutive Wine Spectator Awards of Excellence since opening for 10 years straight, and a DiRona Fine Dining Award recipient since 2016.
The menu changes slightly with every season, and the wine, sake, and beer list is always evolving and growing.

Our goal is to have all our guests be a part of the fun, and to share the love we have for the restaurant, food, and staff.

    This is our favorite date night spot. It’s cozy and the food never disappoints. The staple menu items are amazing but we love trying new things on the weekly specials. The servers are amazing, we love Jordan. Drinks are great as well. Definitely recommend.

    We were there on comedy show night, so it wasn’t the usual atmosphere. Excellent food, special event menu, fair prices for good quality, flatbreads & homemade potato chips w dip were excellent. Our server, Chris, was very friendly & attentive. Fun night, we’ll be back!

    The service and food were great and I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for good quality food. The prices seemed reasonable. The food presentation was nice and the flavor for the beet salad had good depth.

    This was our 2nd time dining here and once again, it did not disappoint. It should be a Michellen Star restaurant. The food is to die for...I think the short ribs and potato dish is the best meal I've ever had. The cocktails are expertly made as well. I feel lucky to have this type of restaurant in our neighborhood. Even better, the service is like a 5 star restaurant...maybe better. Word for those with kids...come early and this is not a great restaurant for kids who like to run around or cant sit still. Our kids are great in restaurants but the vibe here is more adult friendly. The hostess and waiters all made our kids feel welcome but I think I, myself, feel more comfortable here without my kids 😀. Great date night.
