We had a great evening with delicious food last night at the best kept secret in Meridian! Service was excellent, the meal choices were outstanding. It took us quite a while to decide because it all sounded good. Best calamari appetizer! Pork skirt steak, sea scallops, and ahi tuna were ordered and everything was perfect. I would have given the atmosphere 5 stars except that the back yard needed some clean up, (we ate outside) but the season is young and I’m sure they’ll get to it. Inside looked comfortable and inviting. We will come back!

The service was outstanding, staff was knowledgeable and attentive. The owners are very present and made a point of greeting each table. The food was good and the menu is unique with lots of delicious offerings. The cook on the Lamb and Sea Scallops was perfect, but both dishes needed a bit more salt. We’ll be back for sure, the live music on weekends is really fun!

We came in for a late Valentine Date Night. The food was amazing. We ordered the focaccia bread, salad, and steak. My husband enjoyed the clam chowder as well. We were there on a Thursday night and got to enjoy some live music. Excited to come back when we can dine on the patio. We also loved the desserts!

We came here for an early dinner. It was our first time and what a great place! The atmosphere is low key and very cozy, perfect for a dinner with friends. The menu is very creative and eclectic. We both opted for the wine pairing menu with 3 different food and wine offerings. They were all very good and unique, especially the buffalo short rib over polenta. We had a wine offering prior to dinner and it was a great Cab from the Central Coast of California. BTW, their wine selections are varied and show a good knowledge of wines and the terroir.

The owners went out of their way to accommodate the needs of our party, which was very nice. The wait staff were very helpful and friendly, made great wine recommendations. The food was delicious, especially the sauce that comes with the prawns. The caesar salad and clam chowder were also a hit. We will definitely come back!

You cannot go wrong with this place! The entire team from the kitchen to the servers to the serving assistants. The owners here are so kind and certainly know how to create a perfect environment for a great dinner evening. Beautiful dishes from a very creative chef who has graciously made some accommodations for my diet and hits the mark EVERY TIME. It’s definitely one of our weekly go-to’s.

Comfortable setting, excellent live jazz while we were there. My pasta was served cold, but they quickly remedied it. Flavors were top notch, and our server was knowledgeable about the wine selections, and even wiped our table once the dinner plates were bussed I’m preparation for dessert.
