Let's start with the food. The meals taste like they were homemade from your family's kitchen with ingredients gathered from their back yard. It is hearty, fresh, and delicious. It is never over salted. They also are incredibly accommodating for allergies - in particular, they accommodated my gluten allergy with the most divine gluten free bread.
The service is again like you are eating in your family's kitchen. Genuine, interested, and approachable. Waiters care and it shows.
The ambiance is paramount to this spot, with wood floors and ceilings. With antiquities and comforts on the eye. This is a well-kept gem, one that I was hesitant to even review (selfishly) as this establishment goes over and beyond.
