The meal was excellent and the service staff were friendly and polite. We’ve come to this restaurant on multiple occasions and each visit never fails to impress. The Bang-Bang Cauliflower is an absolute pleasure and the miso truffle cod was extremely delicious. Definitely worth the visit.

My friend and I were there last night to celebrate her birthday. Lisa B was our server and she was fabulous. Very friendly, helpful, and gave great recommendations on the menu. We shared the brussels sprouts, meatballs and vodka pasta - all delicious! Highly recommend all three. They have a lovely outdoor seating area, although we sat inside, there were still people sitting outside enjoying the first days of fall.
