Pino's

I have visited Pino's several times now and the food is just so consistently excellent! The pasta is always freshly made! Their boscaiola and ricotta gnochetti is absolutely delicious! They also have special menu items that are an absolute must have when available (like the 4 cheese ravioli in the picture!). Their sauce is also clearly freshly made with quality ingredients! Additionally, the menu is quite vegetarian and vegan friendly with everything clearly listed on the menu. The service is so super warm and friendly! If you drink, I highly recommend their bar service as well! Overall, I highly, highly recommend dining at Pino's!

If I could give Pino’s 10 stars, I would. From the moment you walk in, the warmth and hospitality are unmatched. The atmosphere is authentically Italian, and the food—crafted and cooked by the owner himself—is nothing short of outstanding. Every dish reflects true passion and tradition. I’ll absolutely be a regular here. Already looking forward to my next meal!

Pino's is a great Italian, neighborhood eatery. Fantastic food, good portions, and very friendly, attentive service. We started inside but moved to the patio. It's the place to be if the weather is right. So many great dishes, it might be hard to choose. They even had off-the-menu wines that were really good bargains by the glass. Parking can be tricky because Pino's is in a residential neighborhood - lucky locals. Buon mangiare!

From out of town. Have been to pino's about 5 times. All great. Off night tonight. Waited 45 minutes for our entrees. Served warm. Asked to be reheated. Chef said maybe this wasn't the restaurant for us. Because we prefer our food hot? Happy to pay for great.food. tonight neither the food nor the service were worth the price.

We went here about a month ago for a girls night, and had an incredible night. It looked like rain but we requested to eat outside anyway.. They set up a table under cover just in case, which was SO sweet. The chef came over a few times throughout the night to check on us, which was thoughtful. The food, atmosphere, wine, it was all incredible. Our waitress was our favorite part. Alessandra was so attentive and sweet! She told us stories about Italy when we asked, chatted with us, and was just a GEM. We will be back the next time we visit Pittsburgh! Thank you Alessandra for a memorable girls night out :)

I was really looking forward to dining here andcread several really good reviews. We were warmly greeted and taken to our table near the front of the restaurant which is open to the street. We werent able to get a spot on the patio, which is adorable. My husband and I started with fried artichokes, a promising start. They were crispy and flavorful but could have used an aioli. We then shared the beans and greens. I thought the banana peppers were a nice addition but overall it was bland. I did appreciate that they use vegetable broth instead of chicken since I don't eat meat. My husband had the tomato basil pasta and meatball. I tasted the pasta and it was cooked well but personally I thought the sauce was way too acidic. My entree unfortunately was just totally dissapointing. I had the Del Sol which was described as having sundried tomato, basil, garlic, pecorino and cream. I expected pieces of sundried tomato and a creamier sauce with discernable ribbons of basil. It was literally pasta coated in a brownish liquid with little flavor. Our server was good. Cocktails were fine but overall a very disappointing experience.

The food and service are excellent. The chef personally makes sure people like what they're eating. Had a great conversation about the dish I ate, he was into details about the history, the sourcing and preparation. He was very kind to tell me where to get the best ingredients for something I inquired about. Will be going here again with a much larger group this time. I want to try all the menu items. James, at the bar was very attentive, and the best.

Went for the first time to Pino’s - it was wonderful. The food was delicious - the service very good and the atmosphere was lovely. My friends husband has hearing aids and restaurants are usually super noisy. This place was not - it was cozy and you could hear when you spoke to one another at your table. Was super nice Pino came by our table - a family run business in a perfect location.

I heard about Pino's through colleagues. They recommended it as a great spot for meeting friends or eating out with the family. I loved the cozy atmosphere of the place - the service was friendly and everyone looked like they were having a great time. The only downside is the place is quite busy so entrees took a while to serve. For drinks, I really liked the blueberry Italian soda. The syrups are house made and taste very fresh. For the apps, we had the butternut squash soup and the mushrooms. Both were great, but I would highly recommend the mushrooms. I love eating wild mushrooms and their mushroom quality was great. I've had the same dish at other places but they were always too greasy bc mushrooms tend to soak up oil. Pino's executed this dish perfectly, and also added a hint of vinegar. The sour taste makes the dish feel less greasy. For entrees, the pork chop was amazing. The flavor was rich (very nicely marinated) and the portion size was huge. I loved the side dishes too. The pork chop was a bit on the fatty side. I didn't really like the shrimp pasta. The pasta was very bland, and I think it needed a bit more salt. The shrimp was too fishy. I ended up taking it home and recooking it with some wine to make it more edible. Otherwise, I felt like we had a great dinner!

The place is so nice - such a lovely patio, one of the best in the area. The service was fantastic and everyone was so lovely. The wine program is also great! Nice selection of by the bottle and by the glass, with a focus on Italian wines obviously. The food is decent, it lacks a little precision in my opinion. For example, the cook on the pastas ranged from Al dente to a little soggy. The calamari came out a little soggy. Some things were under or over seasoned. That's why I give it a 4 instead of a 5. I will be coming back though!

I have been to Pino's a few times. All have been great tasting food! The first time I got the bolognese and I subbed out the pasta type for their gnocchetti (so amazing!!), then I got the butternut squash pasta (I think it's a Winter seasonal dish), and last time I got the Chicken Milanese. All were AMAZING!! Their house made gnocchetti is definitely top tier, and their bolognese sauce topped with ricotta will honestly forever be my favorite and potentially unbeatable. Their squash pasta was really good because I love the combination of sweet squash and salty butter and pasta, but if you don't like squash and are looking for a less buttery sauce, I would stay away from it. The chicken milanese was truly the best I've ever had, and the risotto and asparagus that came with it were very yummy! We got their sparkling moscato wine, and it felt necessary to add here because it was truthfully the best moscato I've ever tasted! Perks of the bolognese is that you can get gluten free pasta with it!! Apps we have gotten are the olives (GF) , risotto balls (GF), focaccia, and artichokes. I would recommend them all. It is also nice to at a same family Italian place can accommodate to both gluten free and vegan diets!! It is both listed on the menu and every staff we have encountered are very knowledgeable about it and will not hesitate to go ask the Chef for extra confirmation! The restaurant itself is very nice, quaint, and cute. It's in a nice location and during the summer, the outside is open for a lot more seating and a nice summer atmosphere, but I will warn you then in my experience, the food does take a little longer when the outside is open! All staff is wonderful and even Pino himself will come out and great everyone and make sure everything is going smooth.

Pino's is a cute and quaint family owned Italian restaurant in Pittsburgh. I came here the other nice and had a delicious meal!! We ordered the focaccia, Italian fries, Bolognese, and the del sol pasta. Everything was fabulous!!! I especially loved my Bolognese. Their noodles and sauces was excellent! The service was great as well! Multiple management people came up asking how our meal was- you can tell they really care about the customer! If you've never been, I highly recommend checking them out :)

Pino's is trendy warm and wonderful. Hustle and bustle but not intrusive or too loud. We were thrilled to have Alessandra as our server excellence! She was attentive and of course friendly and described every entree with true culinary expertise. She knew we had a concert to go to so made sure she was on point. Service was great and food arrived hot and timely. Not too fast but just right! The menu has something for everyone but tonight was a pasta night for us! To start, our martinis were chilled and topped to perfection. The Tuscan salad was fresh and delish. The bolognese pasta was excellent, the pasta Alla Norma with sautéed eggplant was tasty and enjoyed, and the ricotta gnoccetti with butternut squash was savory and light. And who can ever forget crusty Italian bread with tomato basil dipping was yummy! Leftovers for everyone to be enjoyed Sunday!

Really wonderful place! Great food, large menu, awesome pizza & pasta. Try the meatballs! They used to have the meatballs as an appetizer- I asked for 2 as an appetizer and they still brought them out as an app! (now they're a pasta addition and an entree item) The drinks here are also fabulous. I recently was here for a friend's Birthday dinner and we had the best time. The waitress was lovely and so kind. We also tried the dessert and it also did not disappoint! All of this, combined with the nice space, pretty ambiance, and the additional outdoor dining, definitely ranks this high on my list!

Fantastic service: cheerfully greeted at the door and chef came out and spoke to us during dinner. Great experience. Only qualm is that food is a tad under seasoned. Otherwise it's great!

We went here to celebrate my sister's birthday and we were thoroughly impressed. It's a cute little spot tucked into a neighborhood and gave off family vibes from the moment we arrived! We were greeted by it felt like every employee that worked there by the time we received our drinks, and it just gave a great welcoming atmosphere. The cocktails were fantastic, and when I ordered a Lambrusco with my dinner our server offered for me to try something similar with a different taste, and while I didn't like it (too sweet for me! lol) I always appreciate being offered to try something new! Our server was phenomenal!! She walked us through the menu described the specials perfectly, and just overall really took care of us without being overbearing. Now the food: The calamari appetizer while it didn't have the tentacles (which I'm one of the few that this is my favorite part of calamari) it was fried perfectly crispy and fluffy. So good! Because nobody likes chewy calamari. So top notch! I think 2 of us got the fish special of the evening and it was delicious! Fish was cooked perfectly and paired fantastic with the risotto and broccolini! I had the gnocchi and added scallops to it. The scallops were cooked perfectly, and it's been quite a minute since I've found gnocchi that isn't a thick chewy clump of potato and cheese. And that sauce it was in... I think I dream about that sauce. But I will say of all the great food, the fan favorite at our table was the bolognese. Oh my goodness!! That was the best bolognese I have had in this state! It felt like a warm hug that bolognese. We all also ordered some pizzas to go, and I would pay extra to have the Carne pizza delivered to me once a week! It was so good! So, it was a great experience, great food, and great service! I'm sure we will be back!

This was our first time at Pino's with our family who lives in Pittsburgh. It is tucked away in a great location and once you go inside you will feel warm and comfortable and welcomed by a great staff. The service was impeccable! The food is excellent and the chef makes his dishes from scratch! We tried the Roman artichokes, the Truffled burrata, and the fungi! All of which were so delicious! Eggplant Rollotini, and the market fish were also so delicious! I highly recommend coming here! You will not be disappointed in the service or the food! The chef and his wife walked around and greeted guests - he recommended a tasty dessert for us! Great experience was had by all!

Pino's is a vibe!! Went for my birthday dinner and loved it. The inside is super pretty and there's also a whole outside patio area where we sat. Our waitress Alessandra was amazing and so sweet. The food was also delicious- the homemade pasta really makes it and adding the wild mushroom option to my pasta Boscaiola was the move. Only thing I would skip next time is the garlic asiago bread. Pino's is a wonderful spot for a date night, birthday dinner, or evening out with friends and I can't wait to go back!

We were the first table at Valentine's Day weekend. The dining room was clean and bright. The staff was prepped and ready. The menu sounds amazing and taste even better. I started with the carrot and ginger soup. It match the decor. I noticed the paintings are all gone... their restaurant started to fill up! In 20 minutes place was a buzz. My husband had a recommended red wine and the shrimp bisque. It was sweet and creamy and dreamy. Our waitress forgot our salad course, but the portions were so large on the crab cakes and Arrabiata house baked bread with a delightful red pepper sauce accompanied our meal. It was the best crabcake I've ever eaten. I've had crabcakes in Maryland, NC, Boston, New York City, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Mallorca, Brussels Pittsburgh & more And this is my favorite. Please look at the picture --make your reservation in advance & enjoy!

Food and service is always outstanding and consistent. We eat here regularly, can't recommend more. Welcome surprise, they installed sound dampening tiles on the ceiling and walls. Significant improvement in atmosphere! Way to go Pino and Jen!

We came for dinner on a Saturday night with another couple and had a great time. We sat outside under the awning, which was very nice. The restaurant was pretty booked so I recommend making a reservation. Our server Rhiannon was very good - attentive and knew the menu well. Chef Pino also came out to talk with us and explained some of the dishes - very cool! Between the 4 of us we had the garlic Asiago bread, caesar salad, watermelon salad, and bursts caprese to start. Everything was delicious - we ate every bite. For entrees we had the tomato basil pasta, basil cream pasta, and ribeye steak special. The pasta was homemade and the steaks were cooked perfectly. So good! The taxi cab and whiskey smash cocktails were also very good. Overall, I highly recommend Pino's!

This was my first time at Pino's (which has been on my list to get to for FAR too long) and I literally am already making reservations to go back. We had a beautiful night so we got to enjoy our meal and cocktails on their BEAUTIFUL patio outside. (The inside is just as cute) Everything from the moment I got there to the moment I was leaving was perfect. The owners couldn't have been kinder, sweeter people & was lucky enough to get to speak to chef Pino himself throughout the meal. This will be my new spot, I'm sure of that. Thank you for bringing a piece of Italy to Pittsburgh! See you soon!

Some of the BEST Italian in Pittsburgh. I have no idea why the rating for this place isn't 5-stars. We were fans since day 1 -- thoughtful menu, great staff, incredible execution of everything we've had here (and all beef meatballs which is great). When I want Italian, I want this place. Wildly underrated.

We have been trying to get here for a couple of years. We were in the neighborhood and stopped in to see if we could get a table. Pinos was completely booked but found a bar seat for us. The bar tender Rachel was our server. I can't recall when we have received better service. She was attentive and lovely. The food was delicious. We enjoyed. The wine and drink list were great. The only downside was that the food was a bit pricy. I would definitely come back.

Service is impeccable ( I'm sorry I didn't get the name of our server, she was fantastic,) and the food is amazing! Tonight we had the steak special, which was done medium rare and so tender and flavorful. The shrimp with lobster cream sauce is served over tagliatelle and is lick-the-plate-clean delicious. I love that they have posted "work hard be kind" over the entrance to the kitchen. The new patio area is lovely and we can't wait to spend more time at Pino's!

Absolutely incredible Italian food! Front window that opens to the outside, some outdoor seating, indoor seating & bar seating. Very cozy small space offering mouth watering Italian cuisine. Reservations are available and recommend!

Had an absolutely wonderful dinner @pinos_pgh last night. We sat at the bar because we did not have a reservation. I had a basil gimlet! For starters we had beans & greens with sausage & the grilled octopus. Both were 10/10. For our mains I had the cioppino with a tomato and fennel broth & my husband had the cacio e pepe. His entree was served with delicious bread. The servers were very well versed in food allergies and were so friendly. We definitely will be back.

Jen was kind enough to accommodate my book club meeting at Pinos. The food (hot)wine and service were great, my friends were thrilled. Big smiles all around, thank you!

What a great experience!!! I brought my family from Texas visiting us. They are world travelers, and we're very impressed. The food was superb! Elaina, our waitress, was spot on. We will definitely return!

We've eaten many wonderful meals at Pino's over the last few years. It's the perfect place for a classic cocktail or glass of wine, a few small shared plates, and a delicious bowl of pasta. My husband always marvels at how stress-free and pleasant the atmosphere is, and we can both honestly say we've never had an unpleasant or even mediocre visit here. That consistency is a testament to the owners' commitment to every aspect of their restaurant. Pino's is a beloved institution in the east end of Pittsburgh, so I would suggest a reservation if at all possible. Booking via OpenTable is seamless, and they often have numerous same-day slots that become available. If you haven't yet tried it here, I would urge you to make it a priority next time you're in the area!

We had a lovely evening. The food was great and service was excellent. I loved the atmosphere

Visiting from L.A., Pinos is one the most authentic Italian restaurants I've been to in years! The ricotta stuffed eggplant was delicious, the red sauce, amazing! It's one of those places where you need to go back to try the other things on the menu- The ambiance and the service were spot on - hat's off to the chef & staff....

Came for my parent's wedding anniversary and can easily say this is some of the best Italian in Pittsburgh. All of the pastas are handmade and cooked to perfection, and the pizza was incredible. We got the pesto cream, bolognese (some of the best I've ever had), and the tomato basil pastas. Very intimate dining experience and the staff was great. Will definitely come back!

Always a great experience at pinos! The food, drinks, and staff are always exceptional. The bar tender always welcomes you back and treats you like friends. They genuinely care about you being there! From pasta, to pizza, to their meat selections I've never had a bad meal there! The ambiance is perfect for a night out.

The food was good. I recommend the Asiago garlic bread. I got the pizza which was good. My friends all got pasta. The cocktails were good. The staff was very nice. The chef comes out and makes sure to stop at each table. It is a small restaurant. I recommend making a reservation if you go.

Amazing food! I had the garlic appetizer and the softest calamari for an appetizer. Thenni had the bolognise. For derest I had a really good teramisu

We went to Pino's for the first time tonight and we'll definitely be back. Our server, Adam, was very attentive and gave great recommendations on appetizers and entrees. Our table decided on the Roman Artichokes and the Truffled Burrata for our appetizers and were so glad we did. Both apps were great, but the Truffled Burrata stole the show. Our table absolutely loved the truffled Burrata and fresh bread - it will definitely be our "go-to appetizer" from now on. For my entree I got the bolognese and it was delicious. Overall, we had a great time celebrating my mother in law's birthday at Pino's and are looking forward to our next visit!

We were here a few months ago and the pasta did not disappoint! The chicken cacciatore came with a chicken thigh and drumstick, that was very juicy and tender. We also had the sausage arrabbiata pasta and that wasn't overly spicy, but had a nice kick. Overall, the pasta was cooked to perfection and we loved the sauces. It is a smaller space inside so when we it was busy and that made it a little noisy.

What an amazing neighborhood gem! Pinos is now one of my favorites. We had a delicious meal and the staff was so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend ordering lots of dishes and sharing them. We had the lavosh, Caesar salad, beets and carrots, soppresata pizza, pesto cream pasta and Tuscan braised beef and our group of 5 loved every single dish. We will be back!

Loved the mussels and octopus as starters. Followed by a rich spicy sausage home made pasta. Portions are perfect that I had no room left to try out the tiramisu! Sat out on the patio on a beautiful night lit bright by a full moon (Chinese Mid Autumn Festival).

Amazing food, friendly and knowledgeable servers, very nice outdoor patio seating area. My only question is "How have I not found this place sooner?" The beat and carrot appetizer was delicious! We tried two different pasta dishes - both of which were fabulous AND all of the pasta is made in-house! Can't wait to return soon to try some of their other dishes.

Really enjoyed our dinner at Pino's. Nice atmosphere. Service was very good. We started with the burrata that was in a tasty tomato sauce. Really good starter. A couple of our group had pasta and really were happy with the pasta and it being Al dente. We split the Caesar salad with anchovies and it was very good. My lamb chops were cooked perfectly and came with a Moroccan style couscous. Really enjoyed our meal and looking forward to trying other menu items..

Hands down the most delicious Italian food I have ever had outside of Italy! The place is warm, inviting. This staff is excellent. Do not visit Pittsburgh and miss this place!

We were a party of 4 and had a reservation. Turns out we accidentally reserved for 2 not the 4 we needed. Upon arrival we found this out. Everyone was so, so helpful and kind. They put their heads together and managed to work it out to accommodate our party. They didn't need to, it was our error but they made it happen. The food was great and service was on point as well. It was a first visit for 2 and a repeat for 2 but everyone will be going back again. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

I had a great experience last night on a date with my partner. We just moved into the neighborhood and were excited to check out a local restaurant. We made reservations on open door the day before and we're promptly seated at a 2-seater table when we're arrived. It was comfortably placed away from the next table. The ambiance was really nice, and surprisingly just the right amount of noise level, despite two larger groups on either side of the dining room. The server, Allison, promptly brought out bread and asked for our drink order. We needed to peruse the menu so she stopped back. Service was a bit slow but she noted they were short staffed and we didn't think anything was an obnoxious wait time. I got the house white wine and my partner got the Lemon Wigle cocktail. Both delicious! For food, we ordered the veal katarina and a gnocchi pasta dish. Both were delicious! So flavorful. I recommend you check this place out. We're looking forward to going back!

Food is amazing. Service was fantastic. And the back patio area is just like a palazzo in Italy. We picked a beautiful evening for dinner out on the patio and enjoyed it immensely. The wine list was perfect for us. Spent more than I expected but the experience was fantastic.

A quaint Italian restaurant in the heart of Point Breeze. I love Pino's and have never had a bad meal here. Chef Pino and Jen do a great job with the place. I definitely recommend giving it a try!

Went on a date with my roommate. Inside looks really cute. I loved the paintings. The food was meh. We ordered asiago garlic bread. Nicely toasted but wasn't much garlicky and the cheese was kind of just placed on top of the bread. I ordered the veal katarina which is supposed to be their best entree. It was bland. My date ordered spaghetti but they just made it with different pasta. Ig it's not that big of a deal but they didn't say anything about it before bringing it out. Nothing special. Prob wouldn't go back

Loved the food. Pino's is set in Point Breeze. Great ambiance and family feel inside. It was a hot evening, but the pasta was excellent. Had the Bellagio pasta. Stuffed with veggies, white whine tomato sauce. Tiramisu was lovely. Had a Peroni and the house red. Loved the service and attention. Will come back.

Paying the check was very difficult for a table of five women. It was burdensome to pay cash on one check while figuring out tax and tip. The owner when questioned was very rude and unconcerned with his poor policy. While the food was good, I wouldn't recommend this establishment. Upon trying to clarify how we were to pay, the owner ( who we did not demand to see) basically indicated that he could care less if we left.

The last few times I have been to Pino's it has been a little disappointing. On each occasion there has been at least one or two things on their menu that they were apparently out of. With an already limited menu, this was frustrating. The last two times it was the cheese plate. This was a real bummer, as my wife and I loved their cheese plate the first time we came here. The last time they were also not making their pizzas which makes up almost a quarter of the menu. On my last trip here I ordered the surf and turf off of the Valentine's Day menu. For the price, the dish was very underwhelming. For what they were charging I was expecting a high quality, properly cooked piece of meat and a lot of juicy crab stuffed lobster tail. Instead, my plate just looked empty and sad. The meat was overcooked and the lobster tail only had about 5 bites I could take before it was gone. Still a great place, but I hope they get back to being extraordinary like the first time I came here.

I had the worst customer service I have had in my entire life from the owners of this restaurant. They were rude to the people in our group - some of which have been going to this restaurant for decades. It was insulting and embarrassing. I have studied hospitality management and the owners response was in opposition to everything taught about customer service. It ruined the entire meal and I can say none of us will be back. These owners clearly do not care about their loyal customers. Be aware!!

Excellent Italian in this secluded corner or Pointe Breeze: I'm Italian and don't usually go out for Italian food but I'd go here again and again. The lamb bolognese is superlative and the staff amazing!

We took a chance on a new (to us) place during Restaurant Week 2020. The restaurant itself is VERY nice, with a cozy atmosphere. I can't really agree with the "Wine Bar" description, though, as the wine list is quite limited. I suppose what they offer is OK, but it is certainly a small list, and overpriced. Now, on to the food..hit or miss. We started with the Harvest Salad, and we both found them excellent. Supergreens, roasted butternut squash, orange, goat cheese, toasted pepitas, candied nuts, honey white balsamic vinaigrette...a lot going on, but it all works. Complex flavor profile, and it was, sadly, the best part of both of our meals. I had the Pasta Marinara as my main. The pasta did, indeed, have. the taste and texture of in-house made pasta. It was obviously fresh, so we're off to a good start. However, the "Chef's signature tomato sauce" is uninspired, nearly flavorless, and ran so much I thought the cops were after it. I had added 2 meatballs, and they were nice and firm. Unfortunately, they tasted unseasoned and the sauce did them no favors. My wife ordered the Baked Eggplant. She liked the eggplant well enough, despite the stingy portion smothered under a lot of cheese. The pasta accompaniment was the same as what I had, and her opinion was the same. One of the restaurant week mains was Eggplant Rollatinni, and we realized halfway through her meal that that was what she'd been served. No big deal, because the dishes were basically the same except one was rolled up. We dined at 5:30pm, so I doubt they'd run out of Baked Eggplant...it seems as if the Rollatini isn't selling, so that's what you get if you order the other one. Again, not a big deal, but kind of a weird flex. Our server was friendly, but the service was kind of slow. Points off for this. Our dinner and 4 glasses of wine came to $124.00 That just is not good value for the quality of food we received. There are so many places to have great Italian food at in Pittsburgh that we see no reason to return to Pino's.

All in all, this was a very lackluster experience. We were greeted promptly and the server was friendly, but that's really where the positives end for me. First, there's the seating. Our table was bench seating, but it was really hard to get in and out because the bench was too high for the table. Just a little sliver of space in between. This was compounded by the tablecloth, which kept getting caught and pulling as I tried to slide in. Between the table height and the hump under the knee area, I spent the meal shifting in my seat trying to get comfortable. Then onto the food and wine. We ended up deciding to do a bunch of sharable appetizers, which honestly was a mistake. We ordered five of them and really didn't enjoy any of them. The brussels sprouts were drowned in a thick balsamic, the sausage was more of a sauce than a sausage dish, the bruschetta tomatoes were bland, the shishito peppers were totally overwhelmed by cheese, etc. Adding to the problem was the plate we were supposed to eat it all on, which was roughly the size of a post it note. We made a huge mess and didn't enjoy the experience at all. My wine was empty for about half the meal, as service was pretty slow. Friendly, but slow. In the end, I can't chalk this one up to an off night and I wouldn't go back.

Had the crab cakes and the pasta bolognese, both were very good. Service was good as well. Will come back!

Delicious local spot in a quiet neighborhood. Food is reliably delicious. Great for dates, groups, indoor or outdoor dining. Very friendly staff. Feels like a very local neighborly establishment.
