    The food was amazing! The wagyu carpaccio was absolutely delicious, and the homemade focaccia was outstanding—definitely a highlight. Overall, our experience was very good, and we would definitely return. My only issue was with the pappardelle. The menu didn’t mention anything about it being spicy, but for me, it was extremely spicy, which was disappointing. For dessert, we tried the chocolate chips, but it was my least favorite dish—quite unusual and not to my taste.

    Such a great experience! This was our first time in for my boyfriend’s birthday. The drinks were delicious. We also got the flatbread, brussel sprouts and halibut. Views were 10/10. Our server was the sweetest and even brought us out a blanket. We will most definitely be back.

    The food was incredible and the service was fantastic. We were there for brunch and had the pancakes, breakfast tacos and steak and eggs along with the delicious Revive smoothie. They use all the healthiest ingredients. We ended up eating here several times over a long weekend. Every meal was flavorful and vibrant. We literally kept going back the Well.
