The Scene – Brick walls, dark wood floors and chocolate tones tame the dazzling light streaming in from sunsets over kitty-corner Welles Park. An elegant curtain of white sheers separates the cozy bar from the dining room, where 20 tables are set with linens and topped with brown paper. Diners--easily spied from mirrors atop the wall of banquettes--are a diverse mix of well-heeled neighborhood types. – – The Food – The contemporary American menu begins with appetizers like the tasty pulled short rib in a veal reduction and potatoes au gratin with goat cheese.

Great Food and Customer Service
by northcitygirl
I love this place! I went w/a good size group of people and we got the 4 course dinner paired w/4 wines for $44 - and it was amazing. To top it off - our service was phenomenal. The waiter was not intrusive; kept water glasses full; dirty dishes were gone right away and it was seemless. I also liked that they had "Just a Bite" option for dessert. Just the right size at a great price. The owner stopped by and he was a very gracious host and made us all feel very welcome. I will be back for sure.

Great food! Great Service!
by mrsbouquet
I tried the 4-course prix fixe menu with wine pairings and loved it all. All the courses were well executed and presented. The wine pairings were right on point! Didn't have any room for desert but will definitely try the next time I return. This is definitely one of my new stand-bys.
- Pros: Good food, good wine, good service!
- Cons: None

Fantastic food and fun!
by bd1234
Service was friendly and attentive. Food was fantastic. Presentations were beautiful and creative. Every wine that was paired with the meal was really good. And, it wasn't a bank-buster. Great place for dates or getting together with friends. I can't wait to go back--and, soon!
- Pros: food, wine, atmosphere
- Cons: I can't even think of one--it was that good!
