This BEET SALAD (Large) is one of my absolute faves!!! The beets are juicy and perfectly cooked. The avocado, slivered almonds,, goat cheese amd dressing are sublime. I like to add the steak (amazing and tasty) and extra dressing. I love this soooo much! Healthy, delicious, colorful and reasonably priced (especially with the Happy Hour (2-6) discount.

The BEET SALAD is excellent but the amount of ingredients is very inconsistent. Sometimes it's very satisfying, while other times the amount of cheese and almonds leaves me wanting. The beets are always well roasted though. I am a repeat customer but think they should give a bit more (and chop the kale more finely).

Not going to lie, as someone who has eaten at most Italian joints in this town, this place is kind of mid. Pizza crust was 3/10, and the cheese/toppings were about the same. The pasta was good but nothing special. Again, not bad, but I could probably outdo them on the pasta front which is never something you want to be thinking when spending $25 a dish. Think this is more of a "go for the vibes" type place versus somewhere you'll get good food.

They always put avocado in the beet salad even though it's not listed. They don't accept special requests so there's no way to remove it. I know a lot of people like avocado but it makes me feel ill so I wish they'd make an option to keep it off. They are also inconsistent on amount of goat cheese and often skimp. The beets are well cooked though.

I love the PAPPARDELLE NAPOLETANA. It's so yummy and flavorful. Great price. One of my favorite pastas in the area when I'm craving a red meat sauce
