    10/10 experience, the service was warm and welcoming and I came in as a solo diner and they were able to make smaller portions of different apps so I could try them! The wine was excellent, the food exceeded expectations—that pan con tomate on homemade sourdough had no business blowing me away like that. Get the cake!!!!!!!

    Great flavours and great ambiance. The cod and braised beef dishes were our favourites. We also enjoyed the slaw. The octopus carpaccio was very spicy; maybe too much. We devoured the molten chocolate cake, which was one of the best. The dessert sampler of all-time favourites was also enjoyable and a nice mix of flavours The portion sizes were better than expected. One of the most memorable meals we’ve had in years. Would definitely come back.

    Fresh ingredients done deliciously. I've never had a Negroni like theirs. We did the tasting menu and we can't wait to come back with more friends to try the rest of the menu.

    Our server was amazing in recommending options that accommodated my dietary restrictions which aren’t an easy feat in an Italian restaurant as I’m intolerant to tomatoes, peppers, gluten, cream and cheese. The bass crudo, gluten free pappardelle with mushrooms and chocolate sorbetto affogato was incredible! I’d definitely go back. The handmade gluten free pasta alone is worth a trip back. SO GOOD! My dining partner thoroughly enjoyed her meal as well.
