| - We finally came here one of the last nights we were staying in the neighborhood, and I was sorry it took this long for us to try it!
Atmosphere: I would call it sophisti-casual. Low lighting, nicely-dressed and attractive crowd, high wooden tables and a modern bar in colorful lights. A great place to catch up with old friends or to make new ones!
Drinks: an impressive array of local and non-local microbrews. My husband loved his until I ordered a Snakebite (half blonde, half cider, with a ruby kiss of creme de cassis for which it's named) and he tried it. His face fell. It was the perfect drink for a warm summer night, one we have replicated many times since for our family and friends.
Food: we shared a market salad and a margherita pizza. Both were outstanding. The salad was very fresh (arugula, beets, chevre) and perfectly dressed with a light vinaigrette. The pizza came with a thin crust, expertly charred, and a well-placed array of fresh toppings -- mozzarella, basil and tomato sauce. It was a lovely meal.
Service: our server was friendly and fun -- a little sarcastic but I like that. He kindly indulged our non-perfect French. Bonus: It was ladies' night, which meant I got 2 free beer tickets. What?! Guess we'll have to stay for awhile. We were happy to.
