Delicious food in a very nice setting. Really enjoyed the calamari and baked clams. Brisket hamburger was very juicy.

Very nice, cool place. No vegan options though but my dining partner had some beautiful carrots with her meat dish. I don’t know how noise level gets graded in the first part of the survey but it was hard to hear and I had to lean across the table to hear my friend. And it wasn’t crowded at lunchtime.

Great food and menu. Worth noting that although this place takes reservations, I’ve twice been the only person there. You place your order at the counter, so it’s not really a full service restaurant. For that, go to Stellina restaurant around the corner. But the food is great.
