Everything here was amazing!!! From the calamari to the shrimp pasta and the tangerine wheat beer. Service was awesome too. I’ll definitely be back.

Definitely try local brew Hardywood Singel & ask for Joel @ the bar! He'll take great care of you.

Food is really great, but when they redesigned the interior from Botega Bistro to Hard Shell, it went from a warm and inviting interior to a boring "old warehouse" look. At least the service is warm.
