butternut squash cappellacci burrata cheese gardens wine salads beets dinner hamachi fresh herbs brussel sprouts tangy crowded well
Doug de Wet

Bustling room was filled with energy and smiles. Smoky beets with burrata and fresh herbs and the tangy garden lettuces salad pair well for a light, delicious start. Excellent service too!

Michael Morgan

Everything I had here was incredible! The butternut squash cappellacci was one of the best bites I have had in awhile. Portions are noticeably small here (order food as small plates ).

Service was great. Pork Ragu , ceviche , scallops , buratta with buttery toast and the squash tortilinni. Defiantly going back.

The beets and burrata are legit best I’ve tasted. We loved the hamachi crudo — explosion of flavors.
