• "The food was all so delicious and beautifully cooked."
• "The food was amazing. The lobster & crab ravioli just melts in your mouth."
• "The food was incredible--simple, well seasoned, and delicious."
• "The food is consistently flawless."

Cons:

• "17 dollars for octopus and it was literally raw/undercooked and under seasoned."
• "We didn’t get our meal for over 40 minutes while those who arrived after us were finishing their main course."
• "The meal may not have been technically flawless (the delicious octopus could stand to be grilled or cooked a tad longer)."
• "The bread brought to the table was not good, thinly cut no crunch, no texture almost like a packaged bread."
• "The farro was bland and grape tomatoes cut in half had zero seasoning on them not worth it."
• "The special pasta was rigatoni with veal and zucchini, the zucchini had gritty skin which all but ruined the dish and the veal was overcooked."
• "The pasta portion was very small like six or seven fork full."

Service

• "The servers and owner are all lovely people who take their jobs seriously and do them well."

Cons:

• "Had the floor manager been out on the floor he may have noticed we were the only ones not eating."
• "Now that lock down is over, they are too good to do takeout and have forgotten the very community that helped keep them afloat."
• "The waiter with the blue glasses, who acted as if he was the manager, was rude."
• "Lowering my review because the owner decided to berate me like a child in his reply."
