    Total gem in industrial Bushwick. The venue is intimate, so perfect for a date or small group dining and you can book the space for small events. I love the open kitchen that churns out deliciousness

    Expect a few pastries and market-driven egg dishes in the morning, sandwiches in the afternoon, and a dinner menu that has charcuterie, cheeses, and Italian seafood dishes.

    My scallops were delicious, but the lamb was cold and the soft shell crab, soupy. Loved the Moroccan tiled floor, though it makes the tables uneven. Try yours for steadiness before sitting down.

    The crunchy artisanal bread with Italian salami, the spicy potatoes and the sweet caramelized French toast are all so delicious. Read more

    The setting is beautiful and can be very romantic (beautiful windows), but the food, as good as it is, didn't strike me as extremely memorable for the small portion and high price it was at.

    This place is beautifully styled! I would come here just to enjoy the decor. Prices are great too.

    From the folks behind Rucola, a beautiful spot with a similarly tasty Italian menu and great cocktails (get the One Tricky Pony!).

    Hidden gem of a place! Perfect for a cute low-key brunch. Highly recommend the soft scrambled eggs.

    Delicious and expertly crafted food. You really cannot go wrong with anything but make sure you try that bar steak

    Northern Italian at really reasonable prices? Yes, please. Also the steak is delicious, if you just want to play it safe

    Tailored service, short but tasty meal selection, warm and traditional decor, the place is worth visiting, and revisiting.

    Awesome food with a very intimate setting. Always get the farinata with tomatoes and pesto.

    Sit at the bar to watch the chefs work! If you're patient, they'll chat to you and maybe offer a cheese tasting.

    The loveliest of places, great atmosphere. But I can't say the food was very memorable considering the price. Great service though!

    The chickpea dish is out of this world. Chef Vinny creates some amazing food.

    Empty place, the radiator leaked so I asked to move, then my bloody Mary never came (after a second reminder). Might have been an off day or just normal hipster service.
