Once again, our experience was great. Had some very tipsy girls there at the beginning but was no big deal. They were cutting loose and having fun. Just loud lol. Our bartender was amazing. He makes the best manhattans and every drink we asked him to make. I’ll return again and again. It’s my go to favorite in my home town.

Fantastic night! Soup was awesome! They make their own sausage for reference. Baby Bella’s was amazing! Gnocchi is always a winner and the bread was delightful! From our servers Eric and Chance to our bartender Reuben. It was a perfect evening with friends and great food! Love this place
