Overall we had a great experience in a beautiful space but the food was a bit inconsistent.
Made reservations through Resy for a Friday night for a group of 5.
Our server, Mark, was informative and friendly. The menu was a QR code that comes up on your phone, which, for a nice restaurant, I really don't appreciate. I like to see the whole menu at once without scrolling up and down to review things. I'd recommend bringing back hard copy menus as a default or at least offering them to customers.
We ordered cocktails which took a little bit of time but they were made with care and all were pretty good! I got the Citta Vuota, which was a sparkling gin cocktail. It was different and light, with herbal and sweet flavors. I would recommend it for my gin lovers!
We got a bunch of appetizers for the table - the meatballs, the calamari, and the Brussels sprouts. All were good, I think the Brussels were the standout. The calamari actually came with fried shrimp which was nice but only 2 shrimp.
For entrees, most people got the special which was a beef short rib. The main issue here is that the dishes were widely inconsistent. Some short ribs were very fatty and others very meaty. Needless to say, my friend who got he fattier one was a bit disappointed. That said they were still delicious and they came with a creamed butternut squash and smashed fried rosemary potatoes, which were great.
I got the Pasta Primavera. It was ok, a little tasteless. I needed to add salt! I think the dish needed a bit of lemon juice and salt to add some flavoring. For a $30 pasta entree, I was disappointed.
The biggest disappointment were the cannolis for dessert - for an Italian restaurant, these were not good. Cannolis are my absolute favorite dessert, so this was tough for me! Filling was pretty much like whipped cream, way too light and fluffy.
Despite some food quality issues, we had a great time, the cocktails were tasty and some of the food was good. For the price point, I'm not running back but at some point I'd give it another shot.
