Reviews
The restaurant had a warm and inviting atmosphere with a slight mid-century modern vibe. The wine “market” isn’t large or impressive but there is one behind the hostess stand. The bar area is actually my favorite part of the whole place (outside might have been but it’s the dead of winter). The barstools were very comfortable and they do have a couple TVs.
My server/bartender was a female with dark hair but she never said her name and I kept forgetting to ask but she took great care of me and checked in plenty. I asked if there were any specials and she said they didn’t have any that day but gave me her personal suggestions on the menu.
I had the Cranberry Basil Spritz for my cocktail and it was delightful. Flavorful but still delicate and refreshing. I love basil so I had to try it. The basil was not overbearing but definitely present ❤️
I had the half Caesar Salad for my appetizer and it was the perfect portion. The bacon was a nice addition to the salad and while I personally could’ve used a tad more dressing, it was still very tasty. I had the Gnocchi with guanciale for my meal. The gnocchi were cooked perfectly and the Calabrian chilis offered a comforting, simmering heat to the dish. There was a generous portion of guanciale in the pasta which I really appreciated…I was able to enjoy some with every bite. The entree was very well balanced and tasted amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and left full but not heavy feeling.
My only real criticism for this visit would be the price of the cocktail. I think $16 is a little high for what it had in it. It was delicious but I wouldn’t pay for it again. The price was not on the drink menu and I might have deferred that choice had it been listed.

I went for a belated Valentine’s Day dinner and I’m glad we tried it. They had a Valentine’s Day menu out, so your experience with options might vary.
Food was the highlight for me. I got the bread board as an appetizer and it was definitely big portions of bread with some really good butters and oil. For my main entrée I went with the Pomodoro pasta, and it was excellent. Portion wise, it was a medium serving. Enough to feel satisfied, especially after eating half the bread board, but not enough that you will have leftovers to take home.
My partner got the Alfredo pasta and it was really good too. You could tell the noodles were homemade, and the sauce was perfect in both the Alfredo and the Pomodoro.
Atmosphere was great and I loved the classy theme. We were seated near where the servers entered orders and cleaned glasses. It wasn’t too distracting, but since it was close to closing time, I did notice a bit more staff chatter. Not complaining, it didn’t ruin the evening, just something to note.
Service was a little hard to read, mostly because of the timing. I’m a little confused why they offer an 8:15 reservation if they close at 9. It was nice because there was almost nobody in the restaurant, but the staff were talking and cleaning up, clearly ready to go home. I couldn’t tell if our server was attentive or just in a rush to get us out, but she was friendly either way.
I’d come back for the pasta alone, I’d just book a little earlier next time.
