The steamed mussels were excellent, with a nice wine sauce that enhanced their flavor. The eggplant parmesan was accompanied by some fantastic sautéed carrots and zucchini, which actually outshone the cheese-covered eggplant that was meant to be the main attraction. Sometimes, you just have to appreciate the unexpected pleasures. The crème brûlée was good as well. I recommend coming here to enjoy the delightful terrace and sitting by the well.

My water glass was always filled, and our server checked in on us frequently. The menu may be small, but it offers a great variety, and the prices are reasonable for the generous portions. I highly recommend the tiramisu for dessert—if you have any space left after enjoying the delicious meal!

Unfortunately, as so many similarly affected restaurants in 2021 they are nearby. It is such a shame and hot on the heels of 41South (closed, so property owners can build condos anyway, there is a little rumor they can be able to reorder and find another location. I hope so.

The food was so good. the mushrooms were sautéed and cooked beautifully with tons of flavor and that sauce left me wanting more bread to sop it up with. The pasta dish we ordered was very good as well. The sauce was flavorful and rich, a hint of spice but not too over powering, it was a well balanced dish. The staff was friendly and the the take out service was memorable. I imagine their dine in service would be even more memorable. We will definitely be going back!
