Great date night! Very cozy intimate seating available if you show up early, like 4:00 for your favorite space. We enjoyed skate and gnocchi after a starter and beet salad. We loved the crafted cocktails, too!

Classy little place with great cocktails and short but ample menu. We had the butternut squash hand pie and the beef mandu. Food, drinks, service, and atmosphere ranked high for us. Loved it!
