I had the vegetarian option…one mushroom ball, one curry lental ball, one Potatoe pesto, a side of sautéed veggies and my husband had the meat concept which was a bbq ball, chicken, traditional veal with tomatoe sauce. I tried each. The word I used to describe them all was delicate. Refined flavors and a nice variety or subtle flavors. I kinda wish this was closer to where I live. Friendly service and a nice location in the old port.

Appreciate the idea but would have welcomed a few additional options such as a pasta to go with the other food. We did not enjoy the flavor of the meatballs, but that was our personal taste. If you love fun meatball varieties, this is the place for you. The traditional meatballs were fantastic.
