Of course, we drove all the way across town, then it was a Friday night, so couldn’t get reservations anywhere else close.

I think my favorite things that I got were the bruschetta, the pear salad, and the tiramisu. Definitely would come here again because there’s so many other things i want to try and the ambiance is so fun!!
