Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"The food here is absolutely excellent! From start to finish, every dish we tried was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. We started with the arancini and wings, both of which were fantastic choices. The arancini had the perfect crispy exterior with a warm, cheesy, and flavorful filling inside—each bite was a delight. The wings were equally impressive, cooked to perfection with a deliciously seasoned coating and just the right amount of crispiness. For our main course, we shared the kebabs and pasta, and both dishes exceeded our expectations. The kebabs were incredibly juicy and well-seasoned, served with a side that complemented them beautifully. The pasta was rich, comforting, and cooked just right, with a sauce that tied everything together perfectly. To top it all off, the cocktails were just as impressive as the food! Each drink was expertly crafted, well-balanced, and refreshing, making them the perfect accompaniment to our meal. The ambiance of the restaurant added to the experience, creating a cozy yet vibrant atmosphere that made our evening even more enjoyable. Overall, everything from the service to the food and drinks was top-notch. If you’re looking for a spot that delivers on quality and taste, this place is a must-visit!"
"Great for date night (there is a movie theater across the street too)! This accidental find was amazing! The staff is welcoming and willing to tell you about their favorites. Bar seating is comfortable for one or inviting friends. The sautéed calamari is a flavor marvel, with a surprising kick The mashed potatoes were light and complimented the calamari. Outside seating is available when the weather permits. Street parking is available and free after 6pm. Can’t wait to go back and have entrees!!"
"Dinner for three was wonderful. The Oyster special between 3-5 is a great happy hour appetizer to share. They were fresh and delicious. The service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The kabobs are amazing with lots of choices. The cauliflower side dish with pistachios is a must try. TV on the bar side has the games on and not extremely noisy. Great place"
"$1 fresh local oysters from 3-5 pm *DAILY* is enough reason for anyone nearby to become a regular. Now add a cool calm vibe during those hours, a respectful crowd, great drink selections, decent food options, and really nice bartenders/staff, you really have *every* reason to be a regular. Stay a bit longer on Monday nights for live jazz to soothe the soul. Just saying, I'll definitely see you around sometime!"
"Love the $1 oysters! Actually there’s tons of options on the menu that I like. Smoked tuna dip, chicken wings, beets with whipped ricotta, herb fries, . The roast chicken was amazing. The specials menu is always testing great stuff. Cocktail menu never disappoints."
"Wonderful restaurant. They were booked up but as a walk in couple we were able to snag 2 seats. The food was delicious. Nice evening ambiance. I think its a great spot to have some good food. Quiet enough to to talk. Really nice spot."
"The oyster was delicious! Our waiter (who was on her 2nd day btw) was super nice and helpful. And, when I said I didn't like how the chicken was cooked, they changed it!"
"We came here Saturday night and it was awesome. The cocktails are great and the food is delicious. The entire staff was wonderful but Paige was the best. I would definitely recommend this place and will be back."
