Excellent service. Everything was thoughtfully made in house with their own unique touches. We had focaccia bread w lemon saffron butter, scallop w pumpkin puree plus fried mushrooms, meat filled ravioli, sable fish w seasonal vegetables, and pistachio tiramisu. My highlight was the flakey sable fish, soft n crispy focaccia and if you like pistachio gelato, you’d enjoy the tiramisu as much as I did! Thank you for the meal, Inn of the Bear : )

Food portions are very generous and tasted good. Pistachio tiramisu is very unique, not too sweet, very nutty and smooth.

Food was good. Tasty and interesting . Service was good. I didn't love the decor. I used to love going to this restaurant when it was Cinara because the room reminded me of restaurants in Italy. Not so much anymore. I felt the pasta prices were a bit high compared to other restaurants

We recently visited the restaurant and it was such a great experience. Tried the chef experience menu and all the dishes were very unique and executed in a very modern way. Gnocchi and ravioli were terrific. The room was full, but the service was excellent, very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Will definitely be back. The limoncello on the house at the end was such a lovely surprise. Thank you
