Owned by Andrew Weissman, I’ve been wanting to try this restaurant for a LONG time! I was not disappointed. After visiting the Pearl Farmers Market one Saturday morning, my daughter and I entered the pristine, modern restaurant. Although offered sidewalk seating, we opted for cool A/C.
Our first wow moment came when we were presented with a beautiful citrus plate. Although I originally though they were blood orange, we could have any combination of grapefruit, oranges, and limes for our ice cold water. The grapefruit had a wonderful fragrance and refreshing flare.
My daughter, a GREAT eater, ordered the Margarita Pizza and I had a thinly sliced pork cutlet with a delicious balsamic reduction. Both were great. Although I’m sure dinner is more formal, I felt very comfortable with my daughter on her best manners. The restaurant has an open kitchen which gives a great ambience.

- We were full but the desserts are definitely something we’ll save room for next time. During our visit we saw cannoli dipped in different chocolates and chopped nuts, tiramisu, and other tasty treats.
- We also over heard the server mention that reservations were strongly recommended, especially the closer to the weekend you got.
- There is an upstairs dining area that they sometimes use for parties.
I’ve been wanting to try this for a while. Need to go in soon!
