About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Romantic
Small and romantic we specialize in celebrations with family and friends, or just a quiet dinner with good conversation. We are family owned and operated and have been serving our community since 2001.

Drive in to Opera Alley and be transported. We strive to bring approachable food and beverage, a sense of comfort and community, as well as a unique and quality dining experience. We call ourselves a "cafe" in the sense that we are not pretentious and offer a fine dining experience in an atmosphere of comfort and respite.

Parking in Opera Alley, and downtown, can be a bit of a challenge, especially on the weekends, so please be sure to give yourself plenty of time when making reservations to find a parking space, or consider a night off from driving and get an Uber or Lift!! Eat good food often, break bread with friends and family, spend time with those you love, and we will see you soon.

    Our recent visit was the fourth time we have eaten there. Service and atmosphere were excellent. The appetizers and soup were excellent. The entrees were very good but not up to our prior experience, which was outstanding. Also, the wine we wanted was available but not the vintage that appeared on the menu. That was a disappointment. Still, we will return when back in the area and hope the entrees regain their excellence.

    Food was excellent. Server was basically trying to take care of all tables, not very successful. She was very good but absent as expected. $46 for short rib rigatoni is wrong.

    Cannot suggest a single improvement. The service, food, and drinks were excellent. It was clean and quiet, such a nice romantic place and we will hands down be back.

    Another great time eating here. The foods just on another level. This visit they had the A/C on and it was colder than usual. Being that it was already cold outside didn’t help. Other than that it was a good visit. They source the best steaks around.

    Over the Moon was okay. First impression is great as the atmosphere has a early 20th century vibe. Everything else was just average. My wife had the risotto, which was very good. I had salmon which was a tiny piece and overcooked, as were the vegetables, and it was over $50. Servers were okay, but not great with information or attentiveness. There are many restaurant choices around that are at same or cheaper price level that have far better food and experience. I can't say it was awful, but we won't be going back.
