This is a very comfortable restaurant and it has excellent food. My husband and I went for an early Valentines dinner. We like to avoid the crowds on the 14th. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We made a reservation and were seated promptly . We shared the tuna tartare appetizer. I had the linguine,it was delicious. My husband had the branzino. Everything we ordered was outstanding.

The food was excellent, just 2 minor things: 1-they don't serve alcohol here. I have since learned this has something to do with Montclair in general, though this restaurant does allow you to bring your own wine. I don't hold it against them, they have no control over it and now i know for next time. 2-They had a modified menu for Valentines weekend, so the regular menu wasn't available. Not the end of the world at all, and we got our food EXTREMELY quickly (and it was delicious), just another thing i wish i had known ahead of time.

We had a wonderful experience. The service was very attentive and offered suggestions on their food menus. Our server, Mario was the best on with his suggestion.. We shared a wonderful salad. For our entrees I had the lobster ravioli and my wife had the linguine. Both dishes were excellent and we look forward to our next visit…. And we definitely will be back !
