    Service was outstanding. The owner was present and accessible. The ambiance was a welcome update from the old Pearl restaurant. The food was exceptionally prepared. The only disappointment was a small portion size on the eggplant appetizer, and minimal seafood in our portions of the cavatelli Napoli style which we received.

    Had a wonderful experience at the restaurant. My husband got the oysters and they were delicious and clean. My husband got the black in pasta with the lobster sauce. Oh my God it was so delicious. I got the pasta with the lobster on it. I forgot the name of it, but it was delicious. Can’t wait to go back.

    This is the third time I have been to this restaurant and I have brought a new friend each time. I keep coming back to try a new dish each time. The chef did a wonderful job redecorating the space. The soups have been delicious highly recommended. Yesterday I tried the eggplant - it was perfect. Last time the meatballs and gnocchi - highly recommended. Give this restaurant a try.

    Modern and warm ambiance. We weren’t seated right away for our reservation which is fine but they have no bar or waiting area. Chef came out with a couple of oysters and apolgized. Very nice and a nice touch. Not a big deal. Oysters were not a traditional American presentation, which I prefer, but they were very fresh and and in an interesting way with a beet liquid topping. Bread was served cold but fresh with excellent EVOO. My dates Bronzino was fresh but lacking any depth of flavor. My pasta dish with shrimp was ok at best. While the pasta was perfectly done, the shrimp was slightly overcooked and overall the dish was very salty. I would try one more time but it didn’t live up to the hype.
