We were sat outside without requesting it, and there were not heaters. It was chilly, but not the end of the world. Food was great and our server Tori was incredible. Highly recommend the pastas!

We had a large group for a birthday celebration, including small kids, and the server was great despite how hectic it had to be for her. The food was excellent and the setting was perfect as the space allowed the kids to be energetic without distracting/bothering other diners. The fact that we had great weather to be outside also helped greatly.

The event Friday night was very lively and the DJ was great. We enjoyed ourselves on the rooftop and the servers were awesome. I also felt very safe with all the security measures taken inside and outside the restaurant.
