| - I would give this 3.5 if I could, but I can't, so I downgraded to three on account of the price and generally small portions.
We went to eat on a Saturday afternoon between lunch and dinner, and the restaurant was quiet and our waiter was attentive and really good. My husband started with a beer and liked the list to choose from, but I stuck with water. Mom ordered the pommes frites and the family really liked them - I passed because they are fried in duck fat.
Portions were small and kind of pricey. My sister and I split a veggie burger with a side of brussels sprouts and the arugula pizza. The veggie burger was good, but not great. The sprouts were pretty tasty, but the serving was pretty small. The pizza was flavorful and yummy with carmelized onions, arugula, garlic, pine nuts, and mozzarella. Mom and my husband both had the cavatelli, which they both agreed was very rich but good. Their servings were also pretty small. My husband was unimpressed with his side salad.
Dessert looked intriguing, but not for the price. We picked up Campbell's cupcakes on our way home.
So - good, not great. If I were going to spend this much on lunch/dinner next weekend, this would not be my place of choice. Neat atmosphere though - would probably be better for happy hour specials and hanging out for a bit after work.
