Peter Vermeulen: I loved every single thing in this place ..all dishes were wow , friendly service and trendy atmosphere. Try the king crab sushi with mango, the corn skewers and the sticky rice coconut cake
Kelsey Kotzebue: Very romantic spot, some of the best seafood I've ever had as well. The crab mac n cheese is a must along with the chocolate hit me cake for dessert.
Elizaveta T.: #Hitme cake is officially the best cake I've had. Triple tartare is light and delicious for late night out. Good rolls, crispy shrimp. Essentially all seafood is good. Don't miss out truffle fries!

Josephine Son: Beautiful space & lovely service but be prepared to wait. $40 flat rate bottles of wine. Must have foods: foccaccia, octopus salami, olive oil cake! Don't forget to check out the rooftop farm!
Dmitry: The food is amazing. House made mozzarella and focaccia are fantastic. Although everything else we had was very tasty. Olive cake with berries did not disappoint. Very reasonable prices.

Tatiana Cellini: Authentic Italian food!The bucatini is my favorite pasta; linguine vongole is always delicious. Start out with the buratta and prosciutto. Don't forget the cheesecake for dessert!
Elizabeth Burstein: Mushroom & truffle fettucine. B had the peas and creamy fettucine. Both 8/10. Dates (10) + mango/goat cheese app-9. Really good in terms of qual + price but bar was cramped. Ricota cheesecake OK
Fabian Martin: Fantastic & cute small Italian restaurant. The black truffle gnocchi was perfect and the ricotta cheesecake blew me away! Strong recommendation and great date spot! Try the Riesling
