His modern flair mixed with traditional culinary skills has created a whirlwind of praise. You will not see seafood options on the regular menu for one reason; All our Seafood is wild not farm raised and we carry ONLY what is available and offer them as our daily specials.

All our meats in our menu have grown and purchased from meat purveyors that there is no use of antibiotics or hormones.

We dined at Spiga last week and decided to return this week with different companions. We were accommodated being seated at the exact table we requested. The atmosphere was very nice as usual. The wait staff was friendly but there were a few mistakes with our order. Overall, it was an enjoyable dining experience.
