• private dinner

  Hosted a private dinner here on Thursday. Space is beautiful and the coursed meals were great. 5/5 on that alone. Wanted to write this though because Steve and the crew taking care of us were extremely accommodating, friendly, and knowledgeable on the food and how to set a great vibe for a large group.

• birthday dinner

  We visited this restaurant for a friend’s birthday dinner, and the private area was incredibly intimate. The service was exceptional—the staff was incredibly attentive to every need and even remembered our names. They took a guest with a gluten allergy very seriously and made him his own gluten-free bowls of pasta and bread. The overall experience was amazing. We started with a bread service, which included three different salads: Caesar, addictive cabbage, and chicory salad. We also had three pasta options: gnocchi in a light cheese sauce, squash tortellini, and a Mariana-based pasta. My favorite was the tortellini. For the sides, we had sweet potato, spinach, and for the main course, we had the whole chicken deboned except for the wings. Overall, it was a great experience.

• large party dinner, party of 15

  Had a large party of 15 guest. The service was impeccable and the food was okay

• birthday party, party of 10

  Came here to celebrate a birthday party. Started off at the bar with some drinks. Our bartender, Hope, was amazing, and had great conversations while we were waiting for the rest of our party. When we’re not seated, we ordered almost everything on the menu. We got 4 of their 30-day dry-aged ribeye which was great for 8-10 people. Other highlights included their stuffed clams, crispy French fries, golden beets, and mushrooms. However, our waiter’s service was subpar. He lacked professionalism, attention, and was not very interested in our party. Otherwise, the ambience and food of the restaurant was excellent.
