    We were warmly greeted on a chilly January Sunday evening. By none other than the chef himself. He creatively described his favorite dish and hoped we would enjoy it as well. If there was a spice or vegetable that was not positive with my digestive tract he introduced another dish that would be hove me instead. The waiter was fantastic and the restaurant should be the 1 attraction in Bridgeport, Ct

    Love this place! There’s nothing in Fairfield nearly as vibe-y and cool with great food and drinks at affordable prices. Here’s what I loved: hand-crafted cocktails (I had the Tropic Morning News), my prime rib plate for $25, welcoming unpretentious service, and the vinyl playing in the background. Don’t sleep on this spot for your next time out.
