Reviews
"Came here on a Friday night and the restaurant was at capacity. Definitely recommend making a reservation in advance. We tried the two salads they had as an appetizer and really liked them. The roasted chicken was also great! Overall, really liked the vibe and decor of this place"
"TL:DR - Very cute restaurant with good food and great service. I would give it 5 stars except it is a bit overpriced for what it is. We had a $50 gift card so we decided to give it a try. The restaurant is incredibly cute and has a great ambiance. Well setup for small to larger parties and the service is great. Our server did a great job making drink and food recommendations and seemed very knowledgeable about the menu. For drinks we tried the Sous vide old fashioned, A quintessential Negroni, Langa gin & tonic, and one other I don't recall the name of. All were well made and quite unique. We were happy with the recommendations and we both enjoyed our drinks. To start we got the half dozen oysters which were very fresh but wasn't the biggest fan of the Mignonette. It was good but not outstanding. For entrees we had a Margherita Pizza and the Wood Oven - Roasted Idaho Trout. Both were very good dishes, but the Trout wasn't outstanding enough to command the $36 price point. The Pizza was good though and it's always fun to have a traditional style pizza. We went with the Margherita to be safe, but would probably try one of the other options if we go again as it could have used a bit more flavor. Yes, Margherita pizzas are usually a bit on the mild side, but this was on the extreme side as the sauce is fairly watery and doesn't have the punch you might expect. For dessert we got the Tiramisù and Fruit crisp. They were both very good but not outstanding. All in all, we weren't unhappy with the meal, but there are other places we would pick over it for the price. Our bill came out to just over $200 with tip."
"Place is pretty good. Service and ambience is top notch. Food too is really nice. Had the salad, pizza and pasta. Desserts are really yummy too."
"What a pleasant surprise to rediscover this fine establishment. A friend of mine took me tonight as a housewarming gift. We both looked at one another and said "it's been awhile since we've been here." What a lovely evening we had. We started off with sweet onion soup and then progressed to our entre of Pacific Northwest trout. Then we finished with a coffee infused gelato and a flourless chocolate cake. My Timberline vodka martini was absolutely delicious. Oh and I can't forget to mention our server Lauren she was quite fabulous. Not to present but yet very attentive. Do yourself a favor and rediscover this incredible establishment, I can guarantee you won't be disappointed."
"We didn't have reservations and they told us it would be a 2 hour wait. They have a parking lot but the parking could be very difficult at times. We left our mobile number and within 10 minutes they called and told us that our table was ready. The waiter's recommendations was spot on, The food was really delicious but to me the proton were to small for the price point."
