Ratings_icons Love the Pizza and Salads

I've been here several times, and love the wood fired pizza and salads. I've had the nettle pizza and the simple Marguerita. Both were delicious and the crust was great. I love their salads, very fresh ingredients. The menu changes daily depending on the ingredients. They have a nice wine selection though this last time around I thought they were off on their recommendations, saying one wine was dryer than the other only to find the opposite true! Had dessert their for the first time, and almond and pine nut cake with fresh strawberries and whip cream. It was good but a little on the dry side. I like moist cake.

Reservations are a must! They're BUSY.

Other Comments:
I was thinking about having my wedding and reception here because it is a pretty, and the food is good. I met the hostess who helps arrange events and she was kind of hit and miss. I had the idea to have the wedding here while dining, and so our waitress was kind enough to bring Jen around. It was a busy night so she could not spend a lot of time with us so I suggested that I e-mail her to set up an appointment. It took 2 e-mails from me (spaced a week apart) to get a response with no apology or acknowledgment of her delay. And I met with her a few more times, and she was a little flaky, and it almost always took two e-mails on my part to get a response. We've decided on another venue.
