    Four of us ate here for the first time recently, and we were all very impressed with the quality of the food, cocktails, wine selection, and attentiveness by the wait staff. I've deducted 1 start because of the noise level. We had a hard time hearing our waiter and ourselves, and we all have perfect hearing. I hope they install some noise abatement panels or something in the future. Lovely place! Glad it's in the area. Cheers.

    The menu has changed so much. It used to be a great place for Tapas but not anymore.

    we had a delicious brunch with an inventive flight of mimosas (ask them to double to puree/flavor and halve the prosecco) plus beignets that were TO DIE FOR delicious!! (a misconception from the menu is that they are flavored - they are all plain with a berry dipping sauce.) And also had a fluffy and flavorful mushroom omelette that was spectacular! Even the side salad was plentiful and tasty - ask for the green goddess dressing. all of this was topped off with great service from Ashlyn who was bubbly and helpful and checked in often. The only peeve on a sunny Sunday is that the interior is dark and there was a DJ playing inside - a little too early - maybe have him show up at 3pm when the younger party crowd is just getting out of bed?

    Used to be one of our favorite restaurants, they used to have good home-cooked stick to your ribs, type meals, and all those are gone no short ribs, no Bolognese, all the good items that were on the menu are now gone and they’re swapping to some kind of bowl Dishes, ridiculous absolutely ridiculous. Another restaurant gonna go down the tubes because they couldn’t leave the menu alone ,most likely we won’t be back.  I don’t know who they expect to cater to, but I’m pretty sure we won’t be back. It’s too bad.

    I hate to give a bad review...I always do research before choosing a restaurant and go expecting a wonderful experience. So, it is with sadness that I write this. First of all, the noise level is terrible. We asked to move tables, but that didn't help much. If you love a noisy vibe, then maybe you won't mind. Service was very slow, probably because the restaurant was packed. However, they should be prepared for that. It took a half hour to take our drink order. It was almost an hour before our food order was taken and then another 15 minutes before even our appetizers or bread arrived. I don't like speedy service, but this was unreasonable. The items I wanted to order (I checked out the menu online) were not on the menu. They admitted that the online menu is not even close to accurate. There were 4 of us at the table and everyone else seemed to like their dinners. My steak was lukewarm at best and the potatoes were covered in a sauce that was so spicy I couldn't eat them. The bread also comes with a spicy Feta spread and the arancini also were in a spicy sauce. Once again, if you like spicy you may not mind, but for me it was too many spicy things. It also took a long time before we got the bill after we were through easting. It was obvious that they were understaffed and probably the kitchen was overwhelmed, but that's part of the picture if you own a restaurant. My advice to this restaurant is to increase the staff, hire more cooks, or stagger reservations. Update your online menu and consider putting in something that absorbs sound.

    We were looking forward to our experience but we were disappointed by the event. The service was good. The breakfast sandwiches were good, the ultimate chimichunggia was too bready and had dno flavor. The avocado toast was also disappointing. The DJ was playing noise too loudly and the percussion was so loud it was physically palpable. I am glad we went but it will be a long time before we try it again. .
