• Contemporary American • Noe Valley

We serve food that, more often than not, accesses that part of our deepest soul where genuine expression can flow forth. We have always tried to give our food and service our best selves, as honest and vulnerable as we can muster. We strive to be a place where you might actually have a real connection; maybe with your server, maybe with your food or maybe with your possibly gracious host who is ACTUALLY glad you’re there. Oh, you wanted a restaurant description? Sorry. Can’t really help you there. We’re not so big on labels. Our food is hard to nail down as we are constantly evolving and entirely seasonal and personal. We’ve used “Food you eat” as a tag line on occasion and that remains accurate. We could also describe it as “Food we really want you to eat”. When you’re here, tell us what you would call it.

    It's my fourth time at this restaurant. The first time, I felt it was mediocre. Every occasion since has been better than the previous. The food is interesting and unique with an Italian flair. The service, except the first time, has been awesome -- the servers have been pleasant, warm, and very knowledgeable about their products.

    Delicious farm to table entree selection with unique combinations that were both substantial and delightful. Small plates were delicious and plated beautifully. We had the Zero Proof drinks and they were the best we’ve had. Couldn’t have asked for a nicer staff.
