It is a great neighborhood location that has just the right balance of comfort food (meatloaf, pork chops, seafood, and pasta) with a step of higher class. Priced within means to enjoy a nice meal and glass of wine (or cocktail). A favorite

New residents to Georgia and heard great things about this restaurant and their Christmas display and did not disappoint. Great service, great Christmas energy, and large portions which make the pricing completely understandable.

I sat at the bar. There was a musician playing in the background. He seemed talented. However, it wasn’t for me. The food was good. I enjoyed the braised wagyu beef cheeks, it was very tender and quite tasty. All in all the experience was pleasant. It would be a perfect place for a date or for a night out with friends. It’s intimate enough to romance, but not too intimate that it would make a friend outing awkward.

Very lively place especially on a Monday night. The service was amazing it was our first experience there and the waiter made sure to be patient and answer any questions we had. I would say be sure to have a reservation tables were always full. The food and drinks were amazing I got a dirty vodka martini which was very good. Me and my husband shared pasta and pizza and it was the perfect amount of food for us. Would most definitely be back!
