Best Casual Restaurants in Santa Cruz

It was a perfect place to go. Almost everything about it was great. The only thing was we did have a reservation and were there 20min before our reservation but weren’t able to get a table. We sat at the bar while we waited for our table but it didn’t materialize. I would go again but either plan on the bar or get there even earlier to make sure we get a table.

Food was very good. One of us was vegan gluten free, and they were able to create a delicious dish to meet his need. I ordered pappardelle bison ragu with gluten free pasta and it was delicious. we ordered 3 drinks, mine was strawberry cream vodka but using tequila instead and it was really yummy. Not just the good food but this place is able to accommodate your need such as gluten free and vegan, and they were able to remove dairy from the dish. We will come back.

It was elegant and good energy. Drink menu was creative and well executed and the food was really good. I think one knock I might have is that their menu was very limited (5 main entree options). It’d be nice to see a few more options, that’s all. Similarly the wine list was very limited which isn’t in line with the overall quality of the restaurant

Great restaurant, nice ambience, good food, great service. Great location, right in downtown, multi Storey parking very close

Super good pizza. The remodel now had a mix of walk up counter service, pizza by the slice, or full order. To get a table that is reserved, you talk with the food at the bar. It still took about 15 min to be seated. Our server was super friendly. Great selection of pizzas.
