Disappointed for my first time getting pizza there. The overall size is very small for $20. Secondly and more importantly the crust was very soggy. So soggy that you can’t hold it without it drooping so you can’t bitr it easily. The only thing I can say is it was very tasty.

I love this cute spot in the Winton area. My friend was running late so I went to the bar and had a great. The bartender was great. She asked if I wanted their special, I can’t recall the name of the drink, but it was grapefruit base margarita. It was delicious. My friend got there we sat in their outdoor area. It is a cute setup and a nice evening sitting outside. The waitress ( I didn’t catch her name, but I want to assume that she is new at being a server ) told us the specials and I asked if their chicken Tuscan pasta dish was the same dish that was posted on their FB page yesterday and she said she didn’t know because she didn’t work that day. I asked for a straw and never received it. She didn’t refill our waters when needed, and the biggest thing was when she brought our check with our cards, she was trying to multi-task with having a tray of drinks and trying to put the booklet onto our table, she ending tossing it to our table. I have never gone to a restaurant where they toss anything onto my table. I do hope she was new at being a server and it that never happens again. (The food we ordered was delicious. We had the spring pea and asparagus Risotto, creamy and absolutely tasty. We also ordered the Fungi pizza, if you love mushrooms, this is the pizza you will love. Crust was crispy, and the combination of the ingredients was great!)

We had gluten free pasta with sausage and the chicken parmesan. Medium price range for the food, good wine and excellent service. The restaurant was busy but not packed and we were able to dine in without a reservation. I saw several people I know picking up take out, all quite happy.

We enjoyed a very relaxing dinner on the patio tonight. The wine choices were very good. We enjoyed our eggplant tower, Caesar salads, and entrees. The wood fired Margarita pizza was excellent!

This restaurant has the best gluten-free pizza in Rochester!! While I have always been a fan of their gluten-free pasta / sauce, I have found a new go-to. Hope you keep it on your menu. So appreciate restaurants that offer options to those of us with Celiac. Thank you!
