    The food always delivers here and so does the service and atmosphere. The texture of the pinsas are delightful- chewy doughy and satisfying- and all of the combinations of toppings are well thought out. Thank you. This turned out to be an amazing spot for a “reunion” with friends we’d not seen for ~ 18 years! Thank you for helping to make it special!

    Overall, a pretty good dinner. Good seasonal menu items. The prosciutto and persimmon salad was great; the pizza was a bit undercooked but still pretty good; blueberry lemon cake was ordinary but good. A bit on the loud side, but it was busy so that’s expected. Great service as always.
