"This lovely restaurant is as close to perfection as it gets. The wait staff is kind and extremely attentive-dishes were cleared away promptly, the table was wiped down several times, questions were answered thoroughly, all peppered with some delightful conversation. The food was other worldly. We started with the watermelon salad-red onion, burrata, cucumber, cilantro, and crisp, sweet watermelon. Delicious. We also had a ravioli dish and one of the specials being offered that night. The ingredients in each one were so fresh and packed with flavor. The marinara sauce-OMG-I thought maybe I died and went to heaven. For dessert we had gelato and tiramisu. I come from an Italian family and I have never tasted a tiramisu that rivaled my sister's...until this evening. My goodness...just delightful. Beyond the food and service, there are so many details...down to acoustic panels on the ceiling to buffer noise, beautiful tea cups and saucers with a dainty little spoon, fresh silverware brought with every course...and the perfect size for whatever we were having. We had a lovely chat with the chef/owner afterward and it's so evident that he loves what he does and he just wants people to enjoy it. I asked him about the marinara and he even sent me home with a can of the delicious tomatoes he uses to make it. What a memorable evening we had here tonight...this is truly a special place."
