    Nice neighborhood bar. The hostess was welcoming and the service was great. We ordered the fried calamari to share. They were small and a bit chewy. Complimentary bread was nothing out of the ordinary. The linguini with mussels in white was fine but the linguini in red not so much. Mussels were small. Enjoyed the neighborhood ambiance but the food was just okay.

    Everything was great! The food and service was amazing, no complaints. Our part considered moving to the small bar area to take advantage of the happy hour specials but decided not to. Instead we enjoyed the dining room which was comfortable and air conditioned. Bathroom was hot and I guess not air conditioned so that’s one opportunity for improvement. I would definitely recommend and return.
