"Food was much better than expected. The scallops were done to perfection and the pork was out of this world. Incredible horseradish sauce on a crispy outside made this crepinette something special. Our waitress was functional but a little crabby. All the other service people were fine, I think ours might of just had a bad day. This was really high end comfort food at reasonable prices."

"Everything we had was fantastic: veggie lasagna, scallops, beet-watercress salad, and homemade focaccia with tomato jam and ricotta. The servers were super-friendly and attentive. Highly recommended."

"Loved the restaurant. The owner was very attentive.
The only problem was OPEN TABLE!
There was no record of our reservation. I provided the owner with a copy of the confirming email I received from Open Table. Clearly, something fell through the cracks.

"My first time visiting the restaurant was wonderful. We shared a some of starters, one with the duck and one with the rabbit, both were just excellent. I recommend this restaurant especially if you want to try some foods that you normally would not find. The service was also excellent. I'm looking forward to going back and trying some of their main courses."
