A great find with consistency in both food and quality of service. It’s BYO but there is a liquor store next door with a decent selection. You won’t be disappointed!

One of our "go to" BYOB's. Friendly ownership and staff. Food is consistently excellent. Specials balance out menu. Service is very good. My top two are the Veal Parm - the tomato sauce is great, and the Branzino special - crispy skin. My wife goes for the Chicken Janina or a special of the day. We go to Janina's 2-4 times per month. Also nice the it is BYOB with the liquor store nextdoor.
