    Cozy spot and one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Very interesting mix of flavors and variety of ingredients. We did the tasting menu and the standouts for me were the beef carpaccio and the asparagus dish. Will defs come back in the future.

    I have been here 4 times now - twice for lunch , once for dinner, and once for coffee. It is a really cute bistro vibe spot and the food is very good. Risotto cones, mini burgers, delicious beet salad, grilled cheese, all well prepared and easy for sharing. So glad to have this gem in our neighborhood.
