    Food was delicious. Portions were generous. The creamy sauce on the Lomo soltano with gnocchi was enjoyed perhaps even more when I reheated my leftovers at home the next day as I recalled our great dining experience.

    The food is imaginative and excellent, with each dish having its own distinctive flavors. The staff is thoughtful and kind—attentive when needed while also giving us the privacy to relax and enjoy our evening. The main dining room is comfortable and, thankfully, not loud. This has become my new go-to restaurant when I want to enjoy wonderful food, spend time with friends, and actually be able to have a conversation.
