Lovvvved this place! The food was all delicious, my Cobb was perfectly dressed and each component was delightful. The spinach caramelized onion hand pie will be in my dreams. It was a great atmosphere- airy, beautiful plants and wine wall. Most of all I love that it’s Female Chef owned and multiple generations run the restuarant. What a hidden gem. Can’t wait to go back with some girlfriends for a wine lunch.
