The service was fantastic! The servers were super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. It was the perfect spot for a small birthday dinner. The location is also really nice and quiet, which made it feel like we had our own spot.

The food, service and ambiance was all wonderful. This restaurant is on the pricier side, but it is definitely worth it. The bolognese is to die for, the wine paring suggestion went perfectly with it. We had three antipasti: the burrata, the charred onion (our fav) and the house baguette. I had the bolognese and my boyfriend had the barley risotto. Both were amazing. We also had the browned butter and pistachio ice cream. The playlist was great as well. 10/10
