We made reservations for four but were initially concerned to find the place almost empty upon arrival. However, it turned out to be a delightful surprise. Our waiter was excellent—very attentive and friendly. The food was tasty, and we especially enjoyed the dessert selection. Being a BYOB establishment was a nice bonus. They do have outdoor seating, but we chose to sit inside. I truly hope more people give this place a chance; we definitely plan to return, which we haven’t felt about any restaurant since the pandemic began. If I could suggest one thing, we personally prefer dining with a tablecloth, as it adds warmth and creates a more inviting atmosphere. I hope they consider this.

The outdoor dining area is lovely, offering plenty of space between tables. The food was outstanding, and the highlight of the evening was the osso bucco rice balls. The truffled cream sauce was so delicious that we all wished we could lick the plates clean. We will definitely be returning!
