Food and service was unbelievable. My girlfriend and I live in the North End and have tried many of the restaurants in the area. This is by far my favorite. I got a flat iron steak and it was the best flat iron I’ve ever had. The prices are on the premium end but in this case, your premium cost is getting you a premium experience. 10/10 we will be back.

Hostesses were not pleasant and not accommodating at all when we got there early and did not show any effort in trying to find us a table. Not exactly what I call customer service. With that being said, we have been there 3 times within the last 2 months because of the lively atmosphere, great Italian food and amazing cocktails and bar staff.

I stumbled on this place accidentally when the place I usually go to in Brookline was relatively booked, and I’m so glad I did! The food is outstanding, the cocktail, sublime, and the weight staff were friendly and extremely efficient. This is a gem of a place, not too big so you can have a nice conversation while you are enjoying the delicious food, I will be back!
