Our anniversary dinner was a truly exceptional experience. The staff's attentiveness and care created a romantic and intimate atmosphere, making us feel like the restaurant's sole patrons, while still affording us privacy. We were so engrossed in the cozy ambiance that two hours passed unnoticed.

The pasta is second to none. The Italian owner makes sure the food is fresh - and delicious. A great place for breakfast or brunch too. The French toast is delicious. Moderately priced and excellent food - a great value. You'll be happy you went!

We always have a great time at Bar Contra. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Small plates from wild air are delicious and the cocktails are creative and there is something for every one. Theo is the best! We always try to sit at the bar when him and his colleague are there, usually on Fridays. Will be coming back repeatedly
