FYI - You (most likely) need reservations here. We had dinner here and it was really amazing. I loved everything but my absolute favorite was the tuna small plate. It was much more casual than I expected. I'm glad, I felt comfortable wearing my everyday clothes. Oh it was so good!

Came out here to celebrate a birthday! I was surprised to hear it's been around for 13 years, place is well maintained and I love the light fixtures! Oysters were super super fresh, my favourite was the tuna crudo- beautiful balance of acid and the puffed rice on it was chefs kiss! 👩🏽‍🍳 Eatons Mess was a lovely way to finish off the meal of the duck pasta! Portions are big! Highly recommend :)

Wow! What a marvellous restaurant this is! My girlfriend had been here a long time ago and when I told her I was preparing a date in Chelsea, she really insisted that we pass by the Supply and Demand restaurant for dinner. I'm really glad I listened to her as this is an absolute gem of a restaurant. I've been to hundreds, including a bunch of Michelin stars, and this is really up there on my list of places that you MUST try. I would love to give a huge shout out to our waitress - she was hands down the best part of the whole experience and one of the most friendliest and genuinely passionate person I've met. Also, a second slightly smaller shout out: the complimentary bread at the Supply and Demand is easily the best restaurant bread I've had in my life. I can easily just eat that bread for the meal and I'd be more then satisfied. I have no idea how they bake it, but please don't ever change it. I'll be back for sure just for more bread!

Amazing experience! Authentic Italian-inspired food with perfectly balanced flavors. The butternut squash and goat cheese ravioli were outstanding. Friendly, professional service and a great gin and tonic menu. Cozy ambiance—highly recommend!

We went last night to celebrate a special occasion and left feeling that we could have had a better experience . Although the service was quick nothing about it felt like it was worth the money we spent ($130+). Both of the Pasta dishes were very salty and Al dente. I think our mistake was getting the large pastas rather than small sizes or small plates to taste a bit of everything . The decor is nice but nothing about this place would have me coming back for more .

We had a fantastic experience at Supply and Demand - we split seven items throughout our meal and every one of them was fantastic. The most outstanding dishes were definitely the squid ink rigatoni, which was incredible and unique, along with the roasted Brussels sprouts and the duck entrée. Our server was also amazing, and she suggested the perfect drinks to go with our meal.

I visited this restaurant for a friend’s birthday, and the entire experience was incredible! The memorable dishes were definitely the tuna crudo and the cream cheese cherry gelato (we’d return just for those alone). We also tried the mushroom mafaldine, ravioli, and squid ink pasta. The mushroom mafaldine was my personal favorite, although the pasta was slightly firm for my taste, the sauce was flavorful and well-balanced. The service was exceptional. Our plates were cleared between courses, and our water glasses were constantly refilled. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a welcoming, homey vibe and a view of the open kitchen that added a nice touch. I highly suggest reserving a table to make things easier when getting a table. The restaurant is quite small and can only fit a few tables.

Giving 4 stars solely because of the phenomenal service we received. Staff is amazing and the atmosphere in the restaurant is lovely. However, we find the food to be mediocre. We ordered the PEI oysters and beef tartare to start and those two were good. We got the roasted duck breast and rainbow trout for mains and are not impressed. There was so much going on in the plate and both dishes were too salty. I don’t think the food is worth the price, but if that money is going towards the fantastic service staff, then it might be justifiable.

This place came highly recommended. Now I were to rate them just on apps they would be a 4 star. The main fish was just OK and the pasta being overly oily. The scallop crudo being on best app IMO. The tuna was OK and so was the welk which surprised me as being a menu item. Service is decent but being priced at this level I think 3.5 stars as the mains didn't do it for moi.

Wow! Colleagues recommended this place to us and we now understand why. The ambiance was intimate and gorgeous. We arrived a little early for reservations but they seated us right away. That tuna crudo was one of the best things that I have ever tasted. I also loved that they had 2 different serving sizes for the pasta as I'm a light eater. We are excited to come back.

The best meal we had in Ottawa! This is a small restaurant but you do not feel crowded even when all the tables are occupied. The staff is friendly and the service at a very high level. We had the endive and blood orange salad, the leek and shrimp salad and three of the four pastas on the menu after our server suggested that rather than one full order and one half order we could sample three. She was right and they were all delicious. And our meal here was cheaper than two of the other "big name" places we ate at on other evenings.

I was just visiting from out of town, and the experience did not disappoint. We got the albacore tuna crudo, which was incredibly fresh. I had the squid ink rigatoni which was absolutely excellent, and my girlfriend had the giant ravioli, which was fantastic. The creaminess from the egg and butter made the ravioli such a delight.

Fantastic food! The dishes were so delicious and their accompanying sauces/reductions were immaculate. It's too bad that we couldn't enjoy their indoor dining (the ambiance looked great), but I would definitely consider coming back! We got their: -Fried Brussels Sprouts with Cashew Cheese, Soffritto and Puffed Quinoa -Albacore Tuna Crudo with Lemon, Truffle Oil, Puffed Rice and Cilantro -Squid Ink Rigatoni with Tuna and Prosciutto Meatballs, Chillies, Mint and Bread Crumb -Duck Breast with Roasted Carrots, Prunes and Red Squash Polenta Everything was 5/5. So flavourful and loved the innovative use of ingredients.

Simply put, everything I ate at Supply & Demand was delicious. We had a shrimp and whipped roe toast that was packed with seafood umami flavour, a meaty and delicious housemade sausage, and two housemade pastas that they kindly split into individual portions for my girlfriend and I so that we wouldn't have to do it ourselves. Service throughout was very friendly and knowledgeable, and they were able to help me squeeze in a booking when I called in. It's really nice to see a mixture of good technique and unique interpretations of seemingly basic dishes like a sausage or a pasta. I can still remember the pleasant sweetness of the corn pasta peppered with the kick of jalapeno, and the explosion of deliciousness when biting into the shrimp and roe toast. Highly recommended restaurant to visit!

Delicious food and great service.!They offer a pasta making class which includes wine, a 4 (ish) course meal and oysters, etc throughout the process. The meal includes a few pasta dishes with the noodles made in the class! A great experience and you get to bring some freshly made pasta as well!

Was good but didn't live up to hyped expectations. Tuna crudo was good. Oysters were usual good. Squid dyed pasta was ok. Ricotta pasta was good. Service was really good. Ambiance was a bit more casual than anticipated.

Saturday, August 4, 2023 Food: Very good to excellent Service: Good but VERY slow Servers in tee shirts and cut -off jeans? What the fuck? Ambience: Noisy noisy noisy: Turn down the music and rip up the tile floor and install softening floor. Noise ruined what should have been an enjoyable dining experience. Mr. Christie Ottawa

Flawless service. Food was amazing. Again service sets a really high bar. We had a beets tartare that was excellent and a flawless pasta with squid ink

This place was delicious and it's location is gorgeous. They have a garage window concept so you can speak to the employees without stepping into the building! The location is also at a corner meaning line up's can easily be done without blocking other entrances, buildings, etc. The handoff and preparation was amazing. I had this with my family and we were skeptical of how oysters were going to be prepared and packaged. We did not know what to expect and were happy to see that they were sitting in this container with a bed of ice. It made it home safely even though our commute was about 30+ min home. The beef tartare was perfectly paired with the waffle potato chips. These chips allowed the tartare to be the focal point, since I usually find that the chips can be dense and overwhelm the texture of the tartare. I never would have imagined I would rave about chips but it truly was delicious! The ahi tuna also had truffle oil that was so well paired together!! The truffle oil was strong which tied to flavours together, I was worried it would be too pulled back but it all went so well together. By this time, having eaten the oysters, tartare, and tuna, we were so full but couldn't help and eat through our main: squid ink pasta. Solid staple and the meatballs were so easy to bit into with so much flavour. Albeit, it's quite pricey to order from this place but I think it's money well spent! Would love to eat here again

After tall the hype I have been hearing about this place my expectations were high. Fresh pasta, unique dishes etc. I was a little disappointed to find nothing special here. Pasta while fresh and supposedly cooked al dente was hard. The portions were small without much of the good stuff on the plate like the lobster, mussels, shrimp we were paying for. Worst part about it full size main dishes were $28 ! Very average but expensive night. Would not be back!

Came here during Thanksgiving weekend and it was packed! We made reservations and we were so glad that we did. I love the vibe at Supply and Demand - dark, casual, and rustic. Jumping into what we ordered, we have the Albacore Tuna, Cod Fritters, Kale Salad and the Squid Ink Pasta for the mains. I loved the albacore tuna and everything was just really flavorful and delicious. For dessert, we had the Chocolate Ganache Pie and the Eton Mess. I LOVED the Eton Mess - meringue with cream, rhubarb and berries. So light, sweet and unique. Highly recommend it.

Incredible. From the moment you walk in the door, this place makes you feel like you've been welcomed home with a warm hug! The staff are incredibly attentive, entertaining, friendly and knowledgeable about the food, wine and cocktail menus. The owners, Jen and Steve, set the example. They are extremely hard-working and engaged with their business and their customers. The atmosphere is romantic, fun, light, and trendy. They are gladly able to cater to personal dietary needs and preferences and the food, drinks and wine are exceptional. The menu changes regularly, but adoring fans of mind-blowing staples like the tuna crudo, squid ink rigatoni and kale salad will still have their favourites. This place is by far our favourite restaurant...in the WORLD! We love you Supply and Demand!

First restaurant while in Ottawa, and I was quite impressed! Hubbard Squash Pasta - good lord I was taken aback by how good this was. It wasn't on an orgasmic level, but it made me straighten up in my chair. The plating is gorgeous with the rose petal arrangement of noodles, the snowfall collection of Parmesan, and the free floating feel of the brussel leaves. The pasta was house made, and I could tell immediately. The brown butter sauce was potent, but not to the point of intense joy. The pumpkin seeds and squash provide beautiful landscape of pumpkin patch rides without the use of cinnamon or nutmeg. The brussel leaves were the true laser beams of flavor that melt my face with intense, butter roasted flavor. The duck dish was great, although I couldn't help to feel the duck could have been better rendered on its skin. The meat itself was moist, but at some points not as tender as I would like. The fig is what really ties everything as a whole together. Without the fig sauce, this wouldn't have been worth ordering. This is the type of restaurant that generate local excitement by offering fresh ingredients with a sense of artistic direction. This is one of the few places I would actually go back. I'm convinced there are more items on the menu that are worth exploring.

I constantly keep coming back to this restaurant! What's not to love!? The staff is incredible and friendly, the food is meticulous in quality taste and presentation, price is decent, they make their own homemade bread with specialty butter, they make all their pasta in house. Their kale salad is a must order, top kale salad in Ottawa! Their bartenders are experienced and knows what their doing. I love how you can order the half size or full size pasta dishes. Restaurant atmosphere is classy, tasteful yet modern in a funk loving way. I recommend supply and demand to everyone and have for years to all my friends and they've always come back with a 10/10 review. This is my happy place!

Went to this Westboro spot on an Eater recommendation - Saturday night reservation in August. Restaurant about 90% full. Friendly greeting, table ready. I began with an assortment of three different Canadian oysters. These were fresh, delicious, with a variety of condiments. La Portena had a squid ink pasta to begin - nicely done, primi piatti portion - tasty little meatballs. Our mains were excellent - she had the cod, I the lamb. Both dishes were plated with baby spinach and a puree. The lamb also came with a few chickpeas, and a a sprig of something delicate (chervil?) adorned the fish. The mains were perfectly cooked and it was a good thing we liked them - they were the only two main courses to choose from - no specials. I suppose the dishes attractively were specials as the online menu now features different items. We drank wines by the glass which were of good quality. For dessert we opted for an affogato over the huge Eton Mess - perhaps a mistake there. Service was spot on, and our knowledgeable server directed us to an open pharmacy in the area to deal with an insect bite. A shout-out to her. Were the menu a bit fuller, I might have given five stars. Maybe most customers stick to a variety of small plates.

The food here is amazing, hands now my favourite restaurant in all of ottawa. The appetizers were wonderfully paired, the tuna crisp with the truffle oil and lemon adding the puffed rice for some texture was heavenly. My favourite dish of this meal. The stuffed peppers eaten with the thin slices of squash it sits on in a citrusy sauce paired really well with the mozzarella inside the peppers. All the pastas are freshly made, cooked to perfection and slightly chewy. Each one has a different flavour and the components that gave its flavour really elevated the dish such as dates to sweeten the beef cappellettini. This is a sweet savoury pasta. The squid ink was my favourite. There's a pasta for every taste on the menu Another thing that matched the food was the service. Our server was incredibly professional, welcoming and friendly. The service felt very genuine and it seemed like they're happy to be there.

Came here for a quick dinner bite, and I must say I should have stayed longer! Ordered the broccoli and 2 pasta dishes. For he broccoli good char and good flavours could have been a little bigger for $14. For the pasta squid ink rigatoni with tuna meat balls. The squid ink flavour comes out of the pasta so strong it's so good! Usually squid ink pasta is just for the color but damn this was delicious. The tuna meatball was super soft that's a first in my books by the way The goats cheese and corn raviolis, were amazing light and summery. It was severed with lobster mushroom which seems to be in season tons of restaurants are using it but i could have done it with out it. all in all great food! Thank you supply Ottawa!

WOW. Okay, so to start off, let me be clear that my aunt had been raving this kale salad all week! I happen to love kale- was like, this place sounds wicked! Aunt surprises me and says might as well go get some of that kale salad (because to be honest- she was craving it ever since she first tried it a few weeks back- and now I know why) Let me start off by saying- all my other reviews need to be knocked down a notch for the comparison to this place! How? Well,... At first when you walk in, you know- you're like- "oh, it's not all that bad looking- they've got a thing for seahorses! I could swing with that!" Service was this really nice cool chick :D she did a great job- not overly anxious or tardy (good job as it's hard to be on the edge of that knife) The little things like their menus and bill pockets are totally adorable and very simple yet catchy (loved that!) But wow. Their food was to die for! Okay- I'm a vegetarian, so to begin with, the place isn't catered specifically to us, but do they ever excel in what they offer (they do have various plates available where modifications can be made- the chef is such a doll ((he/she stole my heart)) ) the menu itself is made (by the looks of things) by inspiration of the chef- and certain plates (like their lovely and oh so delicious kale salad) stay around pretty neat year long (if I'm not mistaken ;) ). My aunt will vouch for my reaction to the food. Kale salad each (which btw- is super fresh crispy leaves covered in a very thin yet succulent Caesar and loads of grated parmigiana ((I think?)) ) cheese) and our mains that we shared were these lovely beets (that had a balsamic sauce, feta cheese, onion) and pasta dish (caramella pasta with this SO GOOD cheese within) covered in a wine like sauce(?). I stopped every thing I was doing- thought processes halted, conversation stopped- nada. My aunt wanted to take a picture of my face lol! But what nearly made me cry was the "Apple pie" (which happy belated PI day of the century to you all)! And by all means- I do mean I teared up, it was that good. This thing is like a pizza pocket pouch that was enrobed in cinnamon/brown sugar, was oozing brown sauce and had a dollop of sour cream ice cream on it... OMG The end. My life goals are complete.

There's a reason they are in the running for Top 10 new restaurants in Canada! We were fortunate enough to have Mom take us out for dinner this week and I got to pick the restaurant :) First time here and we had high expectations......4 reviews - all 5 stars......pretty rare to see that on YELP. Nice casual, atmosphere - we were seated do and waited on immediately, drink orders were taken and a very extensive explanation of the menu was given as it was our first time there. The servers were fantastic all night, some of the best front of house in the biz as far as i'm concerned - very casual look, jeans and professional shirts.....totally my style. The minute my water glass was empty someone came to refill it......and same with my wine glass now that i think about it......... i ordered the kale Caesar salad, amazing, super tasty with this great thick bacon bits.....my main was the Pork Loin and Pork Sausage cooked sous vide with a palenta puree....amazing super moist. one of the best restaurants i've been to in a long time. Good Luck i hope they make the top 10 in Canada.

Came here Sunday night to treat a friend to oysters for her birthday (can everyone celebrate their birthday this way please? :P) They had Conway pearls which is a nice change from the usual Malpeques; in the beginning they were able to have three kinds though. Now there is an ordering restriction, only 12 at one time for each person (but you can order the next 12 right after the first batch comes out)! Service was quick, and we were brought extra horseradish when requested, and more bread (omg, the bacon butterrrrrrr is soooo goooood). We probably had 5 plates of bread between three people (no shame! Carbs are amazing) We did not try the food or desserts, but next time I'll get the Eaton mess, which looked amazing as it was brought past our table! Will be back again and again for the oysters ;)!!!

One of the OGs of the Ottawa restaurant scene. Seafood forward and some great pastas. Order It: Baked Alaska... it pretty much the only thing you need to account for when ordering. It's gigantic and feed 4 if needed, so keep that in mind when ordering. It's cake, fruit jam, gelato, meringue and on fire!. Skip it: Recently had an items with black garlic, you may find it too heavily seasoned. Still not bad, wouldn't order again tho. Great spot, $2 oysters on Sundays (might have changed). If you haven't been, check it out.

Wow - I was very impressed with this restaurant. It's fairly small and casual, but the food is amazing! The menu is very limited, but what they do, they do very well. We tried a number of appetizers: the kale salad, the albacore tuna crudo and the roasted beets - all were amazing. The only appetizer I had that wasn't thrilling to me was the cod fritters, and that's only because I'm not fond of the taste of cod. Others enjoyed it. For the main course, I had the squid ink spaghetti (with meat balls and squid) - outstanding! I was too full for dessert... The service was friendly and warm. The decor was very casual (like a casual Italian restaurant or kitchen). It was very busy, so reserve in advance! This may become one of my favourite restaurants in Ottawa!

I'm sorry to disappoint my Ottawa yelp people by not giving this place 4 or 5 stars. I don't want to come off as a Toronto @$$hole and slag an up and coming place but this review is honest. I am from Ottawa originally and am very impressed that Supply and Demand, such a happening hipster place, could open it was when I grew up, a sleepy little burb not so long ago. My mom ( a foodie from before it was cool) and my step-dad were keen to try the place and even though I have my reservations about trendy places , I was game to go as well. First impressions were that everyone was friendly while a bit standoffish and my parents defiantly added to the average age of customers in the joint by around 20 years. We tried large selection of the menu. For starters we had the beef carpaccio, the tuna tartare and the scallops with pomegranate. All of the starters were good. My beef was thinly sliced and delicious with a nice bit of citrus tang. . The scallops and tuna were both nicely seasoned and balanced as well. If the meal had ended there this place would get 4 stars. Then onto the mains. I had the squid ink and pruscutto carpaccio, my mom had the smoked tuna with deviled eggs and my step dad the agricole pasta. The squid ink pasta was interesting. A little bit spicy and had an interesting texture. The first few bites were great but then I started to feel my mouth dry up and began to quickly drink my water. I tried mom's trout and the eggs as well and noticed the same thing. It was so salty it began to dominate over the rest of my palette and really ruined the overall meal. Here is the rub, there are two things that could have happened. What I hope was that because it was a Monday , the expediter and the chefs were taking it a bit easy and were maybe a bit too vigorous on the salt / seasoning. What I'm afraid of is a more structural problem , where the head chef has used salt and other seasonings to deliver a big hit of addictive flavour to people, who may not notice that its dominating the more subtle flavours. I'm hoping to go back and try some more dishes, and cheer for a place in my once formally sleepy burb

THE BEST! This is the ultimate dining experience, you might not want to leave. From the food to the service to the comfortable, but romantic atmosphere! Supply and Demand is one of my favourite restaurants. Their meals are creative and beautifully crafted and above all FRESH and delicious! I always go with one of their handmade pastas and the oysters! Absolutely delicious, great drinks as well! Their dessert is also quite amazing. Go with the frozen lemon/earl grey cream option and you won't regret it! I highly recommend this place. The menu changes slightly each day so you can keep coming back for more.

I really, really enjoyed this place. Location and Decor: This is on a somewhat quiet street, or at least seemed like it when we got there, but the place was packed! Great sign! The decor is very comfortable hipster (when you see the wall paper, you'll understand. I loved it), and boy do they keep it nice and toasty in there! Service: Our server was ON IT. It's not always easy accommodating folks with nut allergies and dietary restrictions, but he went above and beyond, making sure everything was ok, on the side, or just clear that you couldn't eat it (if you had an allergy). Not always easy with a menu as small as theirs! Major points to him and the kitchen for being flexible. Food: Yes. Yes. Give me all the things! They bring out fresh rolls with -- wait for it -- whipped pork butter. COME ON. YUM. Brilliant move chefs, brilliant. We ordered everything from the Garden part of the menu - tasty beet salad, mushrooms and brussels sprouts. All very good. We also got both of the pastas that night. I adored the tuna meatball pasta. Not only was it spicy (nice surprise! I love it!), but it was nicely seasoned and really a great combination with the fish and sauce. Would get again. Skipped dessert. All in all, this is a really hot place in Ottawa right now and there is no reason why it shouldn't be!

They bring out bread early on and a butter they mixed rosemary and duck fat into. I know it sounds awful, but it was tasty and smooth. Squid ink rigatoni with tuna and prosciutto meatballs were absolutely amazing. The roasted Brussels sprouts were so good we almost fought over them. We left with our tastebuds very satisfied. The overall environment was cozy and welcoming. Our bartender/server was good but busy and therefore let us be often. We didn't mind.

4.5 stars! As good as reported. Excellent, knowlegeable service. Awesome decor; I loved the sea horse theme. Reservations highly recommended. Menu changes often so there's no point in discussing specific items. However, everything we had was great/creative/fresh. Squid ink pasta is worth trying if on the menu. Kale salad is incredible too. Can't wait to come back!

Came here on a recommendation from a friend, for my birthday, and was incredibly impressed. Our server was both funny and professional, and being in the service industry myself, standards are sometimes a bit higher. She was prompt, made sure we always had everything we needed, water was constantly full, and so were our bellies. Started off with oysters, the roasted Brussel sprouts (amazing!) and the steak tartare. All were delicious. For the mains, I myself had the cod and my friends both had the chicken. All three plates had nothing left by the end. Finished off with the baked Alaskan cake. Was a bit pricey but the cream cheese gelato and the delivery of the cake in itself was worth the extra money. A nice little treat.

A lovely place! It has a nice atmosphere without feeling toooo hipster. The bread with the bacon butter was so moist and savory. I ordered the smaller sized squid ink spaghetti with the grilled carrots. The pasta was very good, I'm not a huge pasta person but even I thought it was very good. The carrots were even better, the yogurt mixed well with the caramelized flavor in the roasted carrots. My friend ordered the chicken, and it was so juicy. I would never usually order the chicken breast because they're usually too plain but it was so juicy and the skin had such great spices on it I would consider it! Overall really nice experience.

Awesome atmosphere here! Went on a Sunday night for half price Prosecco and oysters! Had a few apps as well. Everything was tasty, especially the nice red bubbly we had (in photo).

We came here. We didn't have a reservation, and although absolutely packed, the lovely hostess still managed to find us a table! The food was outstanding.

Verdict: Not a place to come if you're looking for all you can eat "big honkin' beef ribs", but a great little spot for a nice upperscale candlelight dinner. Both the service and the food were great. We tried the summer squash appetizer which was pretty decent, and the suit ink rigatoni with prosciutto meatballs which was spectacular. The one thing I must say is that although the portion sizes were not large, the one thing that stood out was the amount of flavour. Both the app and the main were incredibly flavourful, which was awesome to experience. I suppose if you didn't like those particular flavours, you would most certainly be out of luck, however luckily all was good. If you looking for a quiet, quaint little place with good food and a good atmosphere, this is your place.

Came here with the boyfriend on a Friday night to celebrate a personal milestone. The restaurant itself is very nicely designed, and the staff is friendly. To start, we had the duck tartare and the ricotta stuffed zucchini flowers in heirloom tomatoes. These were delicious and beautifully plated. No complaints. For our mains, I ordered to squid-ink rigatoni with tuna and prosciutto meatballs and he had the seared salmon with baby clams and pepper purée. The food itself was very good, everything tasted fresh and we were very satisfied. The reason I'm giving our experience a 4/5 is because we both found that our mains were a tad too salty and the employee refilling our water was a bit rude and would set the glasses down haphazardly on the table each time with a clank. Overall, it was a good experience and I would recommend it.

This restaurant is consistently good. Service is amazing (Patrick was a true professional, great personality and really knew his food and wine pairings), menu is fun and unique without being obnoxious. This place is a must and could totally compete against NYC funky resto scene.

My friend and I visited Supply and Demand on September 10th, 2019 via reservation. The place was busy but had approx. 4-5 employees. Our server was Jon (who I believe is the manager). We ordered some oysters, scallops and a pasta dish. The oysters and then the scallops came and went. They were delicious! However, we were left waiting and waiting for our pasta dish. We arrived just after 6pm and because we had somewhere we needed to be, we ordered everything as soon as we arrived and yet were still waiting for pasta at 730pm! Jon came to ask us if everything was going well and I said, "yep, just waiting for our pasta." He spoke to the kitchen and voila! A few minutes later our pasta arrived. It had clearly been forgotten and we would have appreciated Jon telling us about the mistake and covering the pasta or something to acknowledge how long we had waited. A pasta does not take an hour to cook. Especially since my friend and I watched as several appetizers and main courses were coming out for the tables around us. The food was great which is why it deserves 2 stars at least but the service was not accountable at all. If they had been upfront and told us it was missed and had taken the pasta off the bill, we would have still been ok. Would have been repeat customers for the food if the service had been better. Instead, barely a tip and never coming back!

Not very many options on the menu, although my squid ink ravioli with tuna and prosciutto meatballs and topped with bread crumbs and mint had very neat taste parings. Portion was average. The homemade bread with butter was very yummy. I sat at the bar and had good service.
