    Perfect setting for a lunch with conversation that does not fight with background noise and commotion. Charcuterie tray with a crisp wine was one of the best.

    Ridiculously expensive for very little food especially once the huge, extra tax gets added just for dining downtown. Lunch for 2 with non alcoholic drinks: $56 + sales tax + $8 for random downtown dining tax + server tip is WAY too much for a small, thin piece of fish with a spray of greens on top, a small mushroom and tofu dish, iced tea and coffee. Do not waste your time and money here.

    The food and service was excellent. We had the mushroom flatbread which was delicious as was the wild boar sugo which has a wonderful fresh made pasta with it. We also enjoyed the root beer!
