I want to highly compliment the ambiance, it's not overpacked with stuff on the walls just a simple and light decor with a great lunch place vibe to meet friends or take a work call and have lunch. We got the patty sandwich and wings. The buffalo wing sauce tasted tomato based which I didn't like too much but it wasn't bad. The patty melt was delicious.

The Chicken Parmigiano was cooked perfectly, had excellent flavor, but for me there was not just not enough cheese. I like my chicken to be covered- or most of it. The pasta was excellent. So together for me, it's an 7/10. My friend 9/10. The Roman Salad- essentially a Caesar, had great dressing, but the huge dissapointment, was grated cheese. For $15, I want actual Parmesan. I won't be getting that again. We also got a Greek Salad, and 2 Add 1 Polpetti. I was told the salad was good, we couldn't add grilled chicken today because of issues on DoorDash, hence the Add 1 Polpetti. The only comment on the meatballs was that they came with no sauce- while they were tasty, they expected sauce. (Makes sense)?! Overall, the food was fresh, and flavorful. I am not sure if we would order again? For the cost, I expect more. They seemed super helpful, and friendly. Since this was delivery, I can't speak to ambiance!

Spaghetti and meatballs! Yum! Yum! Yum!

What we didn't like: Drinks were ok, my manhattan had too much vermouth. Measuring your pour for drinks is a bad look for a place like this. We go to plenty of other area restaurants that do not do that. For this 1st time limited experience I give 3-1/2 stars and feel they have lots of potential. We'll be back to check out their main menu which looks very good.

Who wants to wait for a server when you're ready for wine now?? It's such a cute place to gather the girls and gossip over wine. I will definitely be back!

She was also a sour drinker which was perfect for me because there were so many great ones to choose from, she built out the perfect flight for me.

This is really a sports bar so when you come here if there's any sports on you're going to I'll be hearing them on the PA system We had the smashburger and the taphouse Burger vote for quite delicious.

My spouse and I eat here a couple times a year, and we are nothing if not consistent: we only order…read morethe steaks. Because of that, I cannot responsibly speak on the rest of the menu--but the steak lane? I know it fairly well. As a fine-dining establishment, it delivers. There's a live piano player, which adds a nice touch... unless you're seated too close. Then essentially enjoying a very intimate dinner WITH the piano man. Loud. Distracting. A third wheel. Steak options are limited but solid. I usually order medium, especially for bone-in cuts. If you're going boneless, I recommend medium rare--trust me, this advice was earned the hard way. Our most recent visit, we passed on the bread. Not out of restraint, but because our metabolism no longer negotiates and has retired! Full stop, the bread is great, but aggressively filling. The waitstaff are pleasant, attentive without hovering, and knowledgeable about both the menu and the rotating specials. Wine pours aren't always perfect, but the staff knows the list well. Speaking of the wine list: it's decent, with the expected 300% fine-dining markup. Pro tip--skip anything you'd normally grab at your local liquor store and aim higher to justify the pain. The vibe is very old-school mafia boss: dark wood, leather chairs, crisp white linens, dramatic lighting, and strong film-noir energy. You half expect someone to whisper "take care of it" from a corner booth. IYKYK--especially the center half-moon booth off the main dining area, where you're on display for check-ins, coat check, and a steady stream of awkward eye contact. The bathrooms are clean, but not easily found if it's your first visit - basement vibes (think secret vault) where you may need a map. If you're celebrating an anniversary, birthday, or milestone and want subtle recognition--no singing, clapping, or secondhand embarrassment--this is your place. Pricing varies wildly depending on how hard you commit. For two people doing entrées and drinks, plus tip, expect anywhere from $150 to $320. Choose your adventure accordingly. Enjoy celebrating, date night or like us, a nice evening out.

Reminds me of the good old days before Covid when restaurants weren't all closed by 9pm... Our waitress Jasmine was THE BEST - she was attentive, filled our waters without us ever having to ask, swapped out our silverware and cleaned off the table after appetizers and very pleasant to speak with. Additionally she gave us real suggestions for popular food items on the menu (not just the stereotypical suggestions that also happen to cost the most) and was a breath of fresh air to have a honest and friendly waitress after a long day. Management: we will be coming back because of her stellar service and most definitely will be requesting her if she's available. You have a rockstar employee!
