All elements were fantastic. Food, service and ambiance. Was a birthday celebration and they customized the menu and dessert. Made us feel very special.

Great food in a very cozy spot. Excellent and attentive service. Just a great place for a nice meal.

I've been wanting to try this spot for years and I'm so glad I finally made it. We started with the rosemary fococcia which is a must try. It has a nice crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside. We also ordered the beef tartare and shishito peppers which were both very good. For the mains we ordered the steak medium rare, although it came out more medium. The au poivre sauce and the crispy fries were the stars of the show. I ordered the squid ink risotto and octopus which was good. I definitely want to come back to try their fried chicken dinner which they're known for and the muscles. For dessert we got the chocolate peanut butter pie and the donuts. BYOB, if you forgot don't worry, there's a wine shop across the street and next door.

What a find! Hard to get resy but worth it. Food, service and vibe were excellent. No doubt that we'll be back as it's a solid restaurant.

This place was awesome. Was going to try to be a walk in around opening time since there were limited reservations, but I was lucky enough to call and find out that a table was available. The entire restaurant has a warm and cozy vibe, with dim lighting. The service was friendly and attentive, taking note of my kids' food allergies. Food was delicious, especially the burrata with tasty brussel sprouts that both went well together. The brick chicken was tender and unique with curry. The steak frites was rich, buttery and came with a generous portion of fresh french fries on the side. The roasted sweet potato agnolotti had the perfect consistency and balance in flavor. This is definitely a high quality restaurant that not only thrives in Montclair, but would also thrive if it were located in NYC. Would highly recommend.

I have wanted to come here for so long so I used the opportunity to take a special friend for her birthday and it was phenomenal. The service was fabulous and the prices for the quality of food were also amazing. We started with the rosemary focaccia, a basket of large squares of fluffy, hot and delicious bread then we moved on to the beet salad, delicate yet very flavorful with lots of texture. For main dishes, my friend had the Agnolotti which at the time was with morel mushrooms and peas, she loved it. I went with the Berkshire pork, which was probably one of the best pieces of meat I've had in a very long time. It was unbelievably tender and just mind blowing. For dessert we were too full so she had a cappuccino and I had the chocolate PB tart to bring home. It was wonderful. I would definitely love to go back, and taste more of their ever changing menu. A neighborhood gym.

We had a fantastic meal!! We sat outside on the patio since it was a beautiful day. Fantastic service by Ben! We thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered. We even switched plates because we both had "plate envy". The duck confit pot pie is TO DIE FOR!! We will definitely be back!

We've come here 3 or 4 times for birthday celebrations. We love this place. The service is superb both Candy and Leagh are great. The food is very good. It a byob, so a big plus. While we started to have a cocktail we ordered some focaccia bread delicious. For appetizers we had the salad and burrata. For entrees we had the chicken and dumplings and I had the octopus. All great. Desert was the donuts and oil cake. For parking there is a ton behind the restaurant. Go enjoy

Came here with a group of 6 for dinner on a Friday night and had such a great time. They're BYOB and there's a wine store across the street. Everything we ordered was delicious and the service was great. Appetizers: beef tartare, chicken liver mousse, and oysters. Everything was very shareable portions and my favorite was the chicken liver mousse (even people in our party who tried it for the first time enjoyed it). Entrees: duck confit pot pie (as delicious as it sounds), scallops (came with 5 in a light lemon sauce), chicken and dumplings (more chicken than dumplings), octopus + chorizo (delicious), pork shoulder pappardelle (tasty handmade pasta) and kielbasa (was the pork special of the day). Desserts: chocolate peanut butter tart (my boyfriend loved), olive oil cake (very moist) and brioche doughnuts (my favorite). The menu is a bit pricey but the quality is worth it. Can't wait to come back here again to try more! They have a family style whole roasted pig (serves 6-7) and fried chicken that I'd love to try.

Lovely, quaint, yummy and cozy experience! I came on my own and sat at the bar which is adorned with cookbook/cuisine books (color coordination highly appreciated) and fun little knick knacks that were fun to look at. Just beyond that was the kitchen whipping up delights. I re-learned the BYOB thing and at first was disappointed when there was no wine list but then discovered the joy of walking next door to the wine shop and having someone help you pick out a wine to match what you ordered. I walked back over to the restaurant and they provided me with a stand and ice for my bottle of white. The service was beautiful...several waiters/waitresses came over to make sure I had everything I need with friendly smiles and suggestions. I ordered the pate and the peanut butter pie. Both were amazing. The plating was beautiful on both! I loved that the mousse had quince and mustard seed, it paired perfectly! And I usually try not to eat bread but the crostini served with it was magical! Buttery, yet think, crispy, yet tender. The peanut butter pie was absolutely amazing! I loved the addition of the marshmallow! It was the perfect texture. Creamy and firm and such an amazing pairing with peanut butter! I would love to return to try more as everything looks delicious on the menu.
