2 weeks agoI am absolutely amazed by the service we received!! We were there with a group of over 20 people and we all had an incredible experience. The food was wonderful and they even allowed for separate bills. We had a very reasonable priced set menu of 3 dishes. Each course was perfectly sent out by the kitchen so that we were all served quickly and had our courses at the same time as each other. Each dish had great balance of flavors and textures. Bravo! Our servers were so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. One of the best group dinning experiences I've had in a long time!

2 weeks agoCute hidden place for special occasions, we chose the 4 course prix fixe for our table of 10. Once we finally decided what to get, the food came out very slowly after each course. The portion was average per course except for the squash pasta but everyone was still full by the end of dinner. The best dish was the short ribs would highly recommend it. Overall the food was really good and service was good. They also have coat check

in the last weekThis place had done Italian cuisine right 👌 Beef carpaccio ($26) (5/5⭐️): topped with roasted hazelnut, parmigiano and mushroom bits. Each slice was tender and thin and with a blend of flavours: savoury, sweet and sour from the vinegar. Campanelle Di Nero ($29) (4.5/5⭐️): cooked to al denté, topped with a shrimp, nudja sausages in sauce made with tomato, lemon and white wine. The sauce was slightly hot, I hoped the sauce could coat each campanelle better! Pistachio financier cake ($16) (6/5⭐️): star of the meal! With pistachio cream and strawberry on top, paired with ricotta gelato and candied pistachio. The sourness of the strawberry contrasted and complemented the sweetness of the cake, along with the gelato that softened the cake. This dessert stole the show.

2 months ago4 member party/2 bills:$100 & 137. 4 plates, 4 deserts and a glass of wine. Atmosphere was comfortable, clean and busy. Lightning was dim (I happen to like that). Several wait staff to take order, bring food and clear table. Noticed 2 kids eating at neighboring table (ages about 4 & 5). But would suggest reviewing menu before bringing children. Our table had an extremely picky eater (age 14 & likes pizza, fries and macaroni & cheese). Our amazing waiter was great help with selecting her dish, which she enjoyed. Thank goodness we had an amazing🏾!!! Food presentation, flavour and portion was on point. Everyone enjoyed their meal. There was a bit of a wait to give desert order and get the bill, but it was very busy despite the crazy snow and slush outside. And the wait was not extreme. Overall, fantastic experience. Would go back again especially with a date. Black experience: The patrons were diverse and we felt completely comfortable. We did not feel race was an issue. Seemed like there was diverse staff members. We throughly enjoyed ourselves.
