The Foodies Have Spoken

We were immediately welcomed and greeted by Marcos, the manager. Staff came to check on us throughout our meal, and the vibe was very loving and warm. Everyone was so personable and lovely. Great food too!

Came in for appetizers and drinks with the girls and my oh my were we blown away! The margaritas are crafted to perfection! We had the Kung Pow Cauliflower and wings, which were honestly out of this world! Serious compliments to the chef

This place is a real gem. The location is great—right in the heart of Little Italy—super close to the airport and right across from waterfront park. The food was exceptional. Great beer and wine selection. Attentive service. Really enjoyed our experience here.
