The food and wine were good. Our server, "F", basically ignored us though. After taking our wine…read moreorder it was virtually impossible to get his attention. We waited 25 minutes from receiving our drink before he took our food order, and we had to catch his attention for that. Then nothing. He didn't ask if our food was okay, didn't ask if we needed anything else, no offer of more wine, nothing. The menu said that all bread orders come with butter. We had to specially request the butter, again after working to get his attention, which he then told us we really didn't need. We also had to remind him to bring out the rest of our meal, which he had forgotten. He was completely indifferent, no token apology, nothing. And because of where we were seated, he had to walk past us to every other table, yet he still managed to forget we were there. We requested a new server, but by then we were almost finished our meal. I've been to France. The servers there are the best in the world. "F" was the worst. He really soured our experience. Would not go back.

Came here on a Friday night. Their wine selection is very limited for a wine bar. Stale vegetables…read moreregardless of what you order from the menu. Surprisingly generic, north americanized, and extremely salty Italian food. Service was friendly and appetizers were fine. Ambience is ok. Overall, highly pricey compared to what is offered.

Lovely pours of interesting wines, fine specialty cocktails, a bunch of shared plates that included flatbreads, olives, charcuterie, cheese and ultimately a couple of dozen oysters that disappeared almost before the server was able to make it back to the kitchen. What's more to like? Especially nice touches on the oysters that sat on a bed of sea salt with toppings available that included fermented horseradish, a nicely seasoned jalapeno puree and a red wine reduction to perk up the briny little invertebrates. Yum. We did not mess around, spared no overindulgences (burp) and still barely managed to spend $300. Yes, that's a lot of money, but when something is this well put together, very well worth the price in my opinion. And when you're spending that much, any sin gets pointed out in great detail. No such issue. Love to return here and concur with fellow Yelpers the strong rating for this venue. Highly recommended.

It is only open during the daytime 8am to 4pm. Great wifi and a few tables with electrical outlets to plug your electronics in. More than most places. Tables well spaced for social distancing. It can get busy at times but always manage to find a spot. I have had their pies they are yummy. Also, have eaten several varieties of their soup. Their Chili con carne is delicious when available. Always nice background music never too loud just right for conversation or as many do working on their laptops. Worthwhile to check out.

Although their food prices are on par with other places, the quality of the food here surpasses that of other pubs. The decor is quite appealing, and the service is exceptional. We decided to try the garlic puffs, the Cubano, and fish and chips. The garlic puffs were delightful. The Cubano was not only delicious, but the homemade ketchup was a standout. However, the fish and chips were our least favorite. Overall, it's a nice spot for dinner.

Came here for a late 1pm lunch. Was seated right away with no reservations. Service is fantastic…read more Our server made 2 recommendations and we ordered both. I highly recommend this place. Though it's on the pricey side for lunch. My friend had the tiger rose pasta and it was amazing! The prawns are gigantic! I think she got at least 6. Not bad for $ 23(?). I got the flatbread she recommended. BBQ chicken. I would never had ordered this as I am not a huge fan of chicken on my pizza. We both finished our entire meals. Definitely would come back

We went there on a Saturday night and it was not too busy and it has a very cozy feel to it. We got…read moreArancini, Spring Rolls, Tuscan Linguine & Escoba Salad. The sauces that came with Arancini and Spring Rolls were really good and made both the items taste so good. The Spring Rolls weren't fried I believe so don't have that much crunch but still very good and appreciate the healthy unfried version of one of my favorite dishes. The linguine was very well cooked and with a lot of Mediterranean flavors and comes with a bread, which was alright (wish it was toasted and fresher)

We got the cauliflower to start and it was actually really good, the sauce it came with was delicious. The rigatoni was nothing special and if anything tasted a bit dry, like maybe it had been standing out for 10-15 min before it was served. We did really enjoy the chicken supreme though, would reorder that. Interior was super cute. Overall a pretty decent meal but not sure if I would run back

The interior of the restaurant was tastefully decorated but I felt it lacked seating that would make we want to stay longer and help create the cozy ambiance they were going for. The wine menu was extensive, reasonably priced and I loved you could do a flight and try several different wines. The food on the menu was limited and is more charcuterie style, this was done intentionally by the bar so you could experience the full aroma of the wines.
