So blessed that we were able to snag a table for an hour without a reservation, pleasee visit this place! The MOST wonderful, attentive service, and everything was delicious. We ordered the onion pie for starter, pesto pasta and beef stew for mains, and chocolate mousse + strawberries for dessert. Has a clean bathroom…
