A great spot for a casual night out with friends or family alike - I've been here for family birthdays, as well as Valentine's day with my girl. The seating is a bit tight, and a bit rustic - very New York bistro style. It gets a little loud at times, but nothing crazy. Service in generally pretty good even when the place is jammed. The food is great - very well prepared and often unique as well (think rack of caribou with Jerusalem artichoke mash). A go-to spot for cocktails and some good food.
