The bar is perfect for a pre-dinner drink. The bartenders really know their stuff and were happy to chat about their specialty cocktails.

The cocktails were a bit underwhelming, honestly. I stuck with the local beers on tap instead. The food was solid, but the drinks just didn&#39;t match up.

Perfect for a quick lunch. Got the fried cauliflower and arancini. The cauliflower was surprisingly light, not greasy at all. Came out fast, which I appreciate. Just what I needed between meetings.

Had a private event in their Atrium room. The space itself is beautiful, didn&#39;t need much extra decor. Staff handled everything well, kept it all moving.

Joel the owner is so nice, really made our group feel welcome. The duck tacos were delicious, and the flatbread with truffle oil was a hit. Good portions for the price, we shared a bottle of wine and had a great time catching up.

The vibe is definitely upscale but not stuffy, which I liked. It got pretty loud when it filled up, but our server was super on top of things and checked in just the right amount.

The corn cr&egrave;me br&ucirc;l&eacute;e was the star for me. That sweet, creamy custard with the crackly top? Totally unexpected and so good. I&#39;d go back just for that side dish.

Been coming here since I was a kid. That egg and olive sandwich is still the one I compare all others to. The place just feels the same, in the best way.

The patio is really lovely, especially on a summer evening. The tables are spaced nicely so it doesn&#39;t feel crowded. It&#39;s a very comfortable spot to unwind.

Service was a little slow, but the food came out hot and fresh. The grilled octopus was tender, and the pasta had a nice al dente bite. That made the wait okay.

Been coming here for years, and their calamari is still the best in town. Light, crispy, and just enough kick. The garlic aioli is the real star, though.

The house bread was a nice touch. Their wine list had a decent selection of Chianti that paired well with the greens and beans.

The lavender and lemon spritz was so refreshing! 🍋 Really enjoyed their local tap selection too.

The Cubby panini was good, but the real star was the warm orzo side. So creamy and the cheese tasted really fresh.

The scallops were so tender. But that red wine and shallot butter with the bread? That was the star for me. A little sweet, a little savory. Just a really nice touch.

Tried their dining week menu, the $35 three-course deal. The mini antipasto with that Italian dressing was a nice little kick-off. Solid for the price.

We had a family gathering here last weekend. I really appreciate how fresh the ingredients are in their salads. The greens were crisp, and the grilled chicken was perfectly seasoned. It felt like a healthy, satisfying meal.

The baked haddock was fresh, no fishy taste at all. The veal parmigiana was a huge portion, cooked just right. That&#39;s what I came for.

The home fries had the perfect crispy crust. Coffee came in a carafe for the table, just like the old days.

The food here is creative. I had the seared scallops with a yuzu foam - the balance was just right. The nautical decor is a fun touch, but it&#39;s the plates that really stand out. They&#39;re doing something different.

Found this spot for dinner. Bartenders were super friendly while we waited. Food was solid, but it does get pretty loud when it&#39;s busy.

The bar area is so pretty and feels fancy. Grabbed a quick drink there, and it&#39;s definitely a spot I&#39;d come back to for a proper dinner date.

Been coming here for years, mostly for team dinners. The space just works for any group size. You can have a serious meeting or a casual catch-up, and it never feels too loud or too quiet. That&#39;s why we keep booking it.

Been coming here for years. The wagyu meatball appetizer is always solid, good for two people. Cocktails are fresh, not too sweet. Prices have gone up a bit, but it&#39;s still a reliable spot.

Great spot for a party! The bartender MJ really knows his stuff, and the pulled pork paired nicely with a bold red.

The tonkotsu ramen was a pleasant surprise. Broth had a nice depth, not too heavy. Noodles were cooked just right. Bento was decent, but that ramen is what I&rsquo;d go back for.

The bar selection is solid, but the drinks are a bit pricey for the portion size.

Been coming here for years. The portions are still huge, and honestly, the price is right for what you get. It&#39;s my go-to when I just want a solid, filling meal without thinking about it. Never lets me down on that front.

First time here, had the maple-glazed salmon. It was cooked just right, not dry at all. The cauliflower wings were a solid appetizer too. My buddy liked his pasta. I&#39;ll be back.

Tessa at the back bar was on point with her recommendations. Food was good, and the bill was reasonable. Perfect for a pre-show stop.
