Alex HisakaFebruary 21, 2010Make reservations before dinner. Wait times can sometimes be 45-60 minutes! Also, the pasta with stuffed braised beef is to die for.Upvote1Downvote
Aishwarya RaghavanMarch 24, 2017Choose pasta over pizza. But pizza is by no means bad but the pasta is soooo sooo sooo good.UpvoteDownvote

Danielle EbsteinMarch 5, 2018Food was tasty and unique, but it had small portions, slow service, and they were over 45 min late to seat us with a reservationUpvoteDownvote
They seat until 11 on Thursday. After 10 it's easy to get a table without a wait.UpvoteDownvote

Try the Verde-Bianco Pizza With Egg - #fuckyeahUpvoteDownvote
Very disappointed by my last experience. Out of 7 dishes we took as part of the tasting menu, 3 were way too salty, almost inedible. And we felt like we were rushed.UpvoteDownvote

Gus LuongJune 7, 2010Try the Alaskan Halibut cheek with marinated artichokes, spring onion, miner's lettuce and capers. Tasty!UpvoteDownvote

Lisa PicardJanuary 12, 2015Go with the pastas. Pass on the pizza. Crust is soft and lacking flavor. Pasta kills it.UpvoteDownvote
