    Gorgeous setting. We had river views in summer there are outside tables. A stylish restaurant with a central bar area. The food was fast and delicious and had a great vegetarian selection. About 5mins walk from York Street. Really can’t recommend this place enough.

    Last-minute Reservations after seeing my goddaughter‘s play, not far away in cobble Hill red Hook area and we want comfort food. We had the truffle Burrata and the calamari and the meatball and the pistachio salad and the eggplant Parmesan all really good as appetizers and then I had the Bolognese, which was really good and yeah, my friends had other things. One had the ravioli. it looked great. I didn’t taste it, but presentation was good and you just had a great ambience. I would recommend 10 out of 10.
