    Came for their Tuesday ladies night deal. Food was 10/10 and service was amazing. Emmanuel the bartender made one of the best espresso martinis I’ve had in a while. We enjoyed our girls night. Cheers! 🥂

    We used to be huge fans of Owen & Engine & can see now why this is becoming a local favorite.The place is beautifully lit and feels welcoming. Tuna tartare was very fresh as well as their specialty dish Ossobucco veal shank. Blood orange margaritas were definitely the hit of the evening. Christian & Lupe definitely made us feel part of their own family

    Fantastic food and service. A very complete, well sized menu with lots of options. Everything we had was delicious, my only complaint would be how close together the tables are. There isn’t a lot of space inside but once the food came, we forgot all about that. Very well priced too! It’s rare to leave Italian restaurants in the city feeling like you got your money’s worth but that wasn’t the case here.
