Great neighborhood spot that we travel to form a different neighborhood. We loved this space when it was Prime Meats and are happy that they have kept the interior largely intact. Pizza was delicious as were the drinks and apps we ordered. The service was lovely and the general vibe was buzzy but relaxed. Am already looking forward to our next visit.

We really enjoyed our experience at the restaurant. We chose to do a pre-valentine's day (we tend to celebrate the day before to avoid the crazy crowds). The place was excellent in terms of service, food and ambiance. The deco is super, there was a jazz band playing and the overall experience was great. Definitely a must go and a place where we will go back.
