    Food and service were excellent! It was a Monday night so very quiet. We enjoyed several apps, entrees and a dessert. Would definitely recommend. FYI There is parking behind the restaurant, or street metered parking out front.

    Perfect dinner with friends. Owners were so welcoming it seemed like we were in their home. Menu is varied but not overwhelming. They easily accommodated special requests and each of the dishes were excellent. During dinner the owner played piano and sang. Again, it was perfect and can't wait to return.
