Returned for lunch for the first time. SO SO good. My husband had the Caesar and I had the brussel sprouts salad. Excellent. We both ordered sandwiches. Mine was the fennel sausage with broccoli rabe and hostess the meatball parm. Both were 10/10. That bread is to die for!

The food was out of this world! Mars's only 5-star restaurant :) Get the olives and the monkey bread - and whatever else you want, but at least those two things.
