Nice ambience and friendly staff to start. Definitely a great date spot. The bread at the start was sooo good. There’s seasoning on the bread and then the olive oil/balsamic dipping sauce also had some herbs that made this a great start to the meal. Got the cioppino and it did not disappoint. All the elements from the clams to fresh mussels to the salmon and shrimp were well cooked and the broth ties it all together. I was too full but got the tiramisu to go and that was also a winner. Can’t wait to try it again!
