This is a great spot for Sunday Brunch. A great value special brunch menu. The $18 Steak & Eggs (with potatoes) was perfectly cooked, very tasty and hot. Service was very attentive and the covered patio was not too hot for a mid July day. Can't wait to go back! One concern....I have some mobility issues and the climb to the 2nd floor to use the restroom was a little concerning as the stairs are not well lit and the black rubber slip guard on each step plays tricks on your eyes. Be careful!
Showed up on Friday with no reservation, worked us in and was very straightforward with the time they had for us. Beautiful place, absolutely outstanding service, amazing food.
I was so excited to try this place. However, it missed its mark. I seems as if they have been around a bit and are tired of wowing diners. The food was mediocre at best. It kills me when I can’t give a five star review—I suggest you go back to the beginning that made you an ikon in the area.

Fantastic experience. Food was fantastic. Service was excellent. Resturant is a converted townhouse and it is very well decorated. Rooms were cozy and our room only had 4 tables.
Wonderful Italian in a romantic old school setting. The food is delicious, highly recommend getting a few starters or salad before pasta to enjoy the breadth of the menu. Pasta is amazing of course homemade and wonderful sauces and fillings.
Reasonably priced, delicious brunch food. I was seated outside towards the end of brunch, thankfully near a heater. Being outside I saw the waitstaff a bit less. I had wanted more coffee but didn’t want to go looking for somebody inside. Even with the coffee experience, I would go back again for more brunch (maybe even another round of chicken biscuit)
Rich, flavorful and comforting Italian food. The service was excellent, Juan, was friendly and personable. The outdoor seating is perfect for a cool summer night while the dinning room inside has a cozy aesthetic.

I came for a Sunday Brunch. A lot of us ordered the chicken biscuit because I remember it being yummy pre-pandemic. Either I have short term memory loss or something is going very wrong in the kitchen. All of our biscuits were burnt black on the bottom and lacked all flavor. The "fried" chicken was not breaded and so over cooked that it was hard to bite through. The piece of chicken was absolutely tiny (see picture). The "fried egg" was scrambled eggs thrown on the tasteless biscuit. So disappointed. Truly inedible.
See pictures for tiny overcooked, not fried chicken. And burnt bottom.
