    We ordered the bahn mi sandwich and the veggie bowl. Both were cooked perfectly - veggies just crisp enough, flavor was rich but not overpowering and fries were crispy. Our bottle of wine was half price so we appreciated that special. Service was friendly and welcoming while not being too attentive. Great quiet date night with delicious food!

    I took my boyfriend here for his 26th birthday dinner, with no regrets. Both of us deeply enjoyed the attentive service by Nick and the rest of the servers. Our food was delicious, inventive, seasonal, and fresh. A word of recommendation- definitely go for the halibut over the duck. Both were great, but the halibut was absolutely divine. We made the mistake of eating all of our bread before the tortellini arrived at our table. They graciously gave us another loaf to enjoy the full dish experience. (If at all possible, my boyfriend would greatly appreciate any help in recreating that sourdough.) Overall, a fabulous dining experience in a beautiful setting that has given us a memory we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
