    A neighborhood gem. The food was delicious, the portions were large. Our server Joseph was excellent, he made menu recommendations that were spot on. And did I mention the prices were reasonable.

    Everything we ate was delicious. The service is excellent. I’m glad it’s a byob, as we were able to bring our favorite wines.

    Service was knowledgeable but a bit robotic/not personable. The grilled artichokes were good but more asparagus than artichoke on the dish. We ordered both special entrees and they were both very good. The price for the special entree dishes were high ($45 each), however, the portion sizes were good and the dishes were very creative. Warning to not order the Tiramisu. It isn’t really Tiramisu. It comes in a glass coffee mug and looks and tastes nothing like Tiramisu. We took one bite and could not eat anymore. The waitress didn’t notice that we barely touched it or just didn’t care. So, we paid $10.00 for something we did not eat.

    We had a group of five for a Friday night dinner. Everyone was well pleased with their dinner entrees: chicken piccata, crab cakes, short ribs over mushroom risotto. We also had crab bites, which were delish. Our server, Andrea, was great! The restaurant is BYBOB, which is a bonus. Pleasant ambience, easy to have a conversation. Will definitely be returning.

    This ambitious BYOB in Chadds Ford continues to find ways to please. Slower than expected last night, we still felt cozy with a window table in the middle of the restaurant close enough to hear the kitchen working on our meal. Our waitress Sarah was the perfect blend of respectful and attentiveness - checking in on us frequently throughout dinner. We went with the broiled scallops appetizer and the Kennett mushroom soup as appetizers. The Penne Rapini (Penne with broccoli-rabe, sundried tomatoes and sausage) and the Porcini Risotto. Both appetizers and entrees were served piping hot and were delicious. The risotto may have benefitted from a bit more time on the burner, but the taste and the abundance of porcini mushrooms made up for the more watery and less creamy dish. We have sampled across the menu on multiple occasions and at the end of the day, it's good to know there is a solid Italian byob close to home.
