Fantastic, friendly bar with great cocktails prior to our dinner reservation. Cozy, stylish room; attentive, friendly service; delicious food including hearty vegetable soup, wonderful, simply composed salads, and terrific fish and poultry entrees. Large portions and well priced. A lovely experience as a starter for the holiday week!

What a nice dinner. Place is very cute. Was sitting near an area where the staff prepped things. So plenty stopped and chatted near our table. Was not a fan of that. Also was not a fan of the squash risotto. Too sweet and too earthy at the same time. Not a great combo. We swapped out for the escargot that was amazing. Waitress was adorable and very knowledgeable. Would go back again however I would skip the risotto.
