Really nice little spot, perfect for a romantic date. Seating is limited (only 6-7 tables for two and another 2 tables big enough for four people). Room is dark and candlelit. Simply rustic looking decor.
The menu tries to be locavore and there is a vegetarian slant but they did have one (very delicious) meat option.
The menu is very limited with only a selection of 3-4 main dishes each night, a few appetizers, a dessert and a good selection of wine and cheeses available. The cook switches up the menu on a daily basis. Call me a whinger but I wish there were a few more selections on the menu, I felt as if there wasn't much to pick from. (-1 star)
We tried an appetizer with fresh toasted bread served with a white bean spread. It was very garlicy, oily and really quite delicious. Bargain for only $4.
The mains were priced around $12-$16. Portions were not huge but very adequate/reasonable.
I tried pork belly and pulled pork served over sauerkraut. Super awesome. The pork was cooked to perfection and completely drool-worthy.
My companion tried the fresh pasta dish with some kind of pumpkin (the name of the dish complete escapes me right now) but it looked and tasted quite nice.
The food comes served on these old 1970s plates (maybe stolen from some granny's kitchen) which made me laugh. Kind of cheapens the look of the nicely presented food, but it was fun all the same.
We had a good server who was knowledgable about the menu.
This place would be a regular spot for me if it was near my house. Sadly, it is not in my hood.
