Delicious lunch and great service. We sat at a booth in the bar area - a perfect location for lunch and catching up with friends. The chicken and avocado club was so good, the chicken pot pie a great choice on a cold rainy day and the wine was icing on the cake! Highly recommend!

On a busy holiday night, they were able to seat us ahead of our reservation when we were early. The staff was attentive and accommodated an indecisive preteen:) Mussels, crab cakes, rollentini, Alfredo, arrabiatta, bruschetta, as well as a wood fired pizza were among the orders. All were delicious. If you’re in the Rockville area, you can’t go wrong with this place!
