This was a phenomenal experience, every single dish was a perfect blend of the familiar and the new, the service was excellent Darius was charming and thoughtful. No notes 10/10 and for less than 20$ an entree?? 11/10
I loved that the menu happened to be all vegetarian when we went. The fact that they have a seasonal rotating menu will also definitely keep us coming back. The mushroom bolognese sauce was so rich and filled with umami. I didn’t take a picture of the saffron poached pears as I took it home to eat but I really enjoyed it - the flavors were very reminiscent of the Indian dessert Srikhand. There’s limited seating so it felt a little loud and crowded inside but I did enjoy the open kitchen concept.
Super tasty pasta made perfectly with a nice atmosphere, good location and an unbeatable price in the bay area. The menu is small but delicious. They post a photo of it on their website and you can call for pickup which is super convenient. It's nice, casual and comforting. Simple, well executed food!
The spaghetti & meatballs and strawberry shortcake were absolutely spectacular! I enjoy a smaller menu — the chef really knows their stuff. Loved the casual setting, too. A special spot.
Cozy local spot. You order at the counter and grab a seat. The space is pretty small, so I showed up about 10 minutes before opening, and it filled up quickly. Prices are surprisingly reasonable for this economy. The food was great, too. Only downside was that when the staff member (who also takes orders) made my cocktail, the carbonated water was nearly empty. She still used it, so the drink had no fizz at all.
