Visited one week ago on the holiday Monday, after seeing a film at the theatre nearby and then asking Yelp for where to eat nearby. As it was too late for lunch and too early for dinner, it wasn't busy (or else everyone was on the patio) and definitely not loud (as I'd feared that rating). Though we weren't dressed for any occasion, the linen tablecloth (covered with paper) and napkins were a welcome touch. What I also appreciated was how easily the armchair slid over the slate-like floor, so that I could push myself closer to the table without exertion. A small detail, but very important for my comfort.
My companion ordered a Bloody Mary and the Butternut Squash Ravioli and pronounced both to be very good. I decided on the Chianti Sirloin with sauteed mushrooms on top, fingerling potatoes and extremely crisp slender asparagus spears on the side. But there was NO bread so I had to hope that the meat and potatoes would soak up the sauce. Luckily they did. I accompanied my meal with a flask (two small glasses' worth) of Chianti. The wine was very mellow (even though I prefer white).
We spent about two hours lingering over our meals and one benefit of the lull was actually being able to HEAR the music in the background. To my shock, I identified the Carpenters from decades ago.
It was a bit pricier than I would have hoped (I guess that was the wine?) and I do wish there had been bread, considering there were plates laid out for it. But I enjoyed myself.
