I’ve been to Baker and Wife a number of times in the past. They always had pizza and another vegetarian option. This time the pizza was gone and no vegetarian options. The server did not give me any options. I ordered a beet salad which was just ok. This is a fine restaurant but if you are a vegetarian I would suggest going elsewhere.

Excellent meal. Very nice atmosphere. Great service. I would not want outdoor dining though because we would be abutting the parking lot. Reservations strongly suggested

Food was delicious. Had the short ribs over fettuccine not enough adjectives to say how delicious it was. lemon drop martini was amazing. Also We were sat against the wall so I think for us it wasn’t very noisy, but I could definitely see if you were in the middle of that room. it would be very noisy.

B&W is one of our favorite spots to eat. Delicious food, well prepared and a thoughtfully curated menu. We are disappointed that they have discontinued their amazing wood fired pizza. Please doing it back! Also, their salads are sublime and the tuna tartare delicious but both would be improved with a serving of bread. The $12 garlic flatbread doesn’t cut it. Please offer bread.
