I also had the lasagna dip(not pictured) and the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. My least favorite was the lasagna dip, the taste was fine but I kind of expected more. It was a bowl of marinara sauce with a scoop of ricotta in the middle( which is stated on the menu) almost soupy, it did come with some delicious spinach pasta chips though! Loved the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich so I will definitely be back!

The waiter was extremely accommodating offering many free samples without even asking for them. Truly passionate about the product and it showed. They had some interesting guest taps as well. A nice rye lager from a Chicago brewery etc...We had a couple appetizers, both incredible and came out quickly. Food hot and fresh. And we had entrees as well. The entree salad was a little basic, could have done a bit more imagination there but the dressing was so delicious and the burger is killer with that giardinera mayo. Nice delicate onion. No sulfur taste from the onion which shows they really try hard to execute simple dishes very well.Can't say enough good things here. Shout out to Augustine our waiter. Loved it all. The mezcal house shot is pretty smooth as well. Smoky.

The staff are always friendly and clearly work hard to provide great service. Compared to other nearby places the prices are very reasonable. If you have not tried this place, you are missing out.(Note, I cannot speak to the alcohol as I do not drink)Vegetarian options: I often eat vegetarian here because all the food is just amazing (though I am not vegetarian).Parking: Easton parking is awesomeWheelchair accessibility: All areas are easily available via ramps.
