位於Washington​的優質家常料理餐廳

Steaks were cooked perfectly. Service was good. Tables are very wide. Felt like we were sitting far apart.

Hostess was friendly and kind enough to offer to hang our coats when we got seated. That was a First and much appreciated, although not necessary. Sat in the bar for holiday cocktails and quick afternoon appetizer during a busy day of shopping. The Brisket quesadilla were delicious and always on point. Unfortunately, the spiced sangria was lacking the cinnamon and clove. I had the sangria three weeks ago and it was superb; today, not enough spice and tart. The prickly pear margarita was off. The Bartender mentioned how they changed the recipe, but I think she used too much mix. Our waitress/ bartender was refilling what I believe was the cranberry simple syrup into pour bottles with a measuring cup scooping into a 5 gallon bucket at the bar. It was not very pleasing to watch while sitting in the restaurant. Definitely something that should have been done out of sight. 

It was my husband and mine first dining experience at this restaurant. Staff was extremely kind and on point, especially our server Brian! The food was off the charts delicious; fresh ingredients, balanced and unique flavors that was surprisingly familiar to me from an amazing restaurant in Bellevue that we previously frequented (closed years ago)…to my delight, we learned from the extremely personable General Manager Angie, that the owner of this restaurant had previously worked at that Bellevue location and had a business dealing with that owner as well. We also thoroughly enjoyed the gigantic meatball appetizer, the perfect bread (crispy on the outside and soft in the middle) served with a tasty infused dipping oil, the house salad (one of the best that I have ever had and the dressing was extremely reminiscent of that restaurant in Bellevue), and the Canestri bolognese entree was just incredible (a very generous portion)!! In addition, this restaurant (been at the previous restaurant a few times called The Classroom) is beautifully charming!! My husband and I look forward to returning soon to enjoy another delicious meal…my goal over the coming year, will be to have tried everything on the menu!!

What a surprise to find such an interesting, high-quality place in this location! Lovely people, talented chef, interesting setting. We left with the idea that we will be back!
