New restaurant in our small town. Great curated menu, excellent service. Love the vibe and design of space. A little pricey but certainly not more than many in the area

Food and service was outstanding! Love the remodel. The bar is beautiful and although we did not sit there this time we will definitely be back even if just for cocktails! Great new dining spot!

We shared a caesar salad and requested a few anchovies as the dressing doesn't have anchovies in it. They served several white anchovies which I hadn't tasted before. The salad is a terrific choice and the white anchovies are very mild and not as salty as the usual anchovies I've had. We shared the flatbread which is the best I've ever had. I ordered the chicken cacciatore which we took home as I ate all of the flatbread. My wife had the carnitas tacos which were excellent as well. Not many people have caught on to the dinner offered Wednesday through Friday. It is really wonderful.

The tacos and Mexican corn were fabulous! We tried the tacos de Birria and the carnitas tacos and both were great. Very filling. Wed didn't have drinks this time, but we will next time. Lovely atmosphere sitting outside and excellent service. We will definitely come back again! Highly recommend! Loved it.

Both the carnitas and the short rib taco's were terrific. They serve them with a picante sauce and a red pepper sauce that are really great when you use both on the tacos. The caesar salad didn't have any anchovy in it which was disappointing but still tasty. The mixed berry desert could just be the ice cream with a cholate sauce and skip the rest. Their corkage policy is terrible..."$25, but if you buy a bottle of our over-priced wine we won't charge you corkage"

Hello TheFoodCritic, thank you to take your time and post this review, we appreciate your business and we will discuss about the Corkage policy. We are very happy you enjoyed the dinner and we love those sauces too! Please come back whenever you like!
