Everything was absolutely delicious, didn't even get a chance to take a picture of the starters. Corn on the cob was my favorite. Sat at the bar and had excellent service, bartenders were super friendly and helpful! The place has a beautiful ambiance with exposed bricks and rustic feel.

Pizza was fantastic. The ambiance was nice. It's a really good spot to grab a drink and something to eat.

Hi. Ok. This salad is so so good. The grilled little gems are just amazing and the watermelon is so refreshing. The service here was also amazing and I loved the outdoor patio. My husband got the lamb rigatoni which he said was excellent. If we are ever in the Tacoma area again we will be back!!

A little crowded, but we came on a busy Sunday night. Still, the tables are pretty darn close to one another and feels like you're dining with whomever is seated next to you. That being said, our service was wonderful. The vibe is nice and inviting. And our food was really, really great. We will definitely be back!

Brought the family out here a few weeks ago, and the food was amazing. We had the best server ever who was very attentive, made it a great experience, and gave us some good options to try. Everything we had was absolutely out of this world. There was something for everyone, one of my favorites was the fire roasted bone marrow, and seared scallops. It was only four of us so we did not wait that long, it is a smaller space, so if you happen to have a large party, I'd look into calling ahead or seeing if they take reservations. Very fun place, will definitely be back.

Walked in for dinner. We opted to sit outside rather than wait for a table inside. It was kinda chilly, so they did provide us with a little heater- like a Mr Buddy, but it kept going out and we stopped bothering to get the waiter to relight. My chicken sandwich was really good! I liked the thin patty and the fries were also crispy and delicious. I asked for the mustard sauce on the side but ended up using the whole thing bc it was so good. Prices are kinda high, but the food was good.

Came here for my birthday and our party totally enjoyed it. The food, the ambiance, service and all. We went during happy hour so no reservation needed and we got seated pretty quickly. I tried the bone marrow and it was so creamy, rich and full of flavor. My only thing is I wish the bread wasn't toasted with butter. The bone marrow was pretty oily and it got heavy pretty quick. The pepperoni cheese bread was so yummy. They offered me a free dessert of my choice for my bday.

Seriously this is one of my favorites for a nicer night out! You will not be disappointed. It is a popular spot so expect to wait if you're out during popular days of the week... highly recommend reservations, but they also take bar seating but this is also usually full. I honestly will eat anything and everything from here at any given time. I have always enjoyed everything I've ordered here. They do have regular items but also rotate a few items. Salmon toast.. amazing! Beet ravioli... amazing. Sturgeon with mushroom risotto.. amazing! Scallops were so fresh. Spicy lamb rigatoni was delicious.. perfect amount of heat with flavor. I was sad they were out of the bone marrow... but I'll definitely be back for that amongst other things. The service is always great. The ambiance is very date night vibes... darker lighting. They also have nice cocktails or various ciders and beers on tap as well.

Booked a reservation because it's a necessity if you want to eat here and not have to wait forever. We booked the Chef's table/bar. It is a small place and I can see if you just walked in you would be waiting. However it's worth it. The food was delicious and well prepared. Seasoned well, could have been a tad hotter as in temperature when it arrived as we were maybe 20-steps from the expediter. The portions were nice sized, and flavors spot on. I can say the Surf and Turf was a bit disappointing. The 6oz Filet was fatty, and hard to slice and chew. I had imagined an almost cut it with your fork and melt in your mouth but not anything close. The bone marrow appetizer was done well with the condiments offered being a good touch. Could have used two more pieces of toast. Our other dishes were good and hit the spot. Dessert of chocolate custard was a good choice as well. The service was not as attentive as you would think however the shining star was the Assistant Manager and a gentleman running food, setting up silverware and portion cups, filling water bottles etc. This would be 5-stars if not for the couple negatives. Would we return, yes.

Yowza!!! *the eye popping out* meme if I could add one! This restaurant is absolutely unsurpassed and my new #1 place to go in Tacoma. It's a medium to small sized restaurant, but has both indoor and outdoor seating. Not great for a party over 6-8, but I bet they could accommodate if you called. Reservations are a must, or go early and sit at the bar. We chose to sit at the bar and had the best experience! Our bartender Matt was phenomenal - he was funny, helped with food suggestions, made conversation, and was a total add to our whole experience! I'd go again just to sit and talk with him, plus his drinks were on point every time!!! Hubby and I wound up each getting our own app, splitting a 3rd, and then split dinner. All the food was in shareable portions and dinner was surprisingly large! I got the beet salad - it's was perfect dressed, fresh and light; a great way to kick things off. Hubs got the bone marrow which he said was more than he's ever seen a place offer. It came with bread and other a accoutrements. We then split the calamari which came with a dreamy sauce. For dinner we split the chicken schnitzel. OMG it melted in your mouth before you could chew! It was the best dinner I've had in a long time! It was great to share because the portion was huge. We finished the night off with an apple crisp that was great. The apples were warm, but not mushy and the crisp was perfectly portioned to the apples and ice cream. For the atmosphere, food and drink quality, popularity, ambiance... you whole get your monies worth! I will be returning many, many, many more times!!!!!
