| - An all-purpose place for any occasion with good value if you catch their specials. Nothing that blew me away, but nothing fell short of expectations either. Gotta say, the bartender who doubled as the host did a great job.
I came here Thursday after a day of work and joined my mother and brother for an early dinner - we arrived before 5pm - so the place was pretty empty and relaxed.
Since they have $7 apps on Thursdays, and neither my mum nor my brother were hungry, they took advantage of the promotion and went ahead with a half margarita pizza, Parmesan chicken bites, and crispy ravioli. All of them were decent.
For myself I ordered the butternut squash ravioli ($19) which doesn't look like much, but have the server go crazy on the parm and you're in for a pleasant surprise. Super rich, with a good balance of funk from the cheese, warmly spiced pumpkin filling, fresh sage, and crunchy bits of hazelnut, in a nutshell? Get this dish.
The bread was also freshly baked, and I appreciated the huge bubbles in it, but it would have been better if they had balsamic vinegar and olive oil for dipping instead of just olive oil.
We had everything in the photos, and the bill came in at $45 including tax. Packed up the leftovers too.
Overall, well valued, in terms of service, atmosphere, taste if you take advantage of the promos. Good hangout location.
