    We had dinner here last night and brunch late this morning and both were delicious. I had the duck casoulet for dinner and it was out of this world. Last night we were seated right next to the open kitchen, so I thought it was going to be loud with people rushing past the table constantly, but our server was very attentive and helpful, and it turned out not to be quite as loud as I thought it might be when we first sat. This morning we had a lovely booth for two that was much quieter. We will definitely be back as we enjoyed our experience very much and there were plenty of other dishes I wanted to try on the menu!

    We’ve dined at this gem many times and it was a no-brainer for a wonderful valentine’s date for us. One of the most impressive aspects of Burrata is the consistency in the food and service quality. It’s many of the same people year after year who recognize you even if you’re only there a few times. They’re a well-oiled machine that can handle a full house with efficiency and a relaxed friendliness you can feel from the moment you walk in. The food is always amazing and the service exceptional. We always leave feeling happy and saying, “that was sooo good!” We are grateful to have a place like this nearby.

    What an excellent place to eat! It's a charming restaurant with lots of little rooms where the noise level is low. The food quality was excellent and it came out very quickly, despite being a very crowded evening.

    Simple Irish Menu. Too many potatoes for my taste. Irish stew was tasty, but 80% potato and three bites of meat. Giant potato wedges, with one thin piece of fish in the fish and chips, again tasted fine, just overwhelmed by potato.
