Excellent Italian food. Nice quiet atmosphere. Not a place I'd recommend for children. Coursed menu. Expect to enjoy a high end dining experience. Pricey but worth it. Same owners as La Cosecha.

Drinks & Nightlife
There isn't an option for wine & beer tasting venue. This is more of a local's spot, but it is well worth the trip. They are very knowledgable about wine and beer from around the world. They have a small but good sandwich and salad menu. Service is leisurely. Check the website or Facebook page for information about local bands. Not suitable for children or if you are in a hurry.
