Getting a table:
We are small! We only take reservations for the dining room. The bar room and patio (weather permitting), as well as any last-minute vacancies in the dining room, are always available first come first served. Call ahead if your walk-in party is 6 or more.
Due to an increase in requests we have recently rolled out a new online reservation system. We appreciate your patience as we adjust to the new system and higher demand.
To make a reservation, please use the above booking system, or access the system via this link. For large parties 9+ or help booking your reservation, please call or send a detailed email and a member of our team will assist you.
Valentine’s Day:
Valentine’s Day dinner is a special 6-Course menu, standard dinner menu will be unavailable. Dinner times are offered at 5PM or 8PM. Reservations for Valentine’s Day (Friday, Feb 14th) released on Tuesday, Jan 21st @ 10AM EST. Limited to no availability may remain. Reservations for Valentine’s Day can only be accessed through THIS LINK, and will not be accessible through the normal portal above.
Our current wait policy:
Guests are welcome to call ahead to gauge an estimated wait time, but you must be present in the restaurant to join the waitlist. 5pm and 8pm are good times to try for the least wait.
When our bar room is full we can point you to several other great spots nearby. Once you’re called we can allow 15 minutes to seat you, after which time we may need to pass the opportunity to the next party waiting.
Late arrivals:
We allow a 15-minute grace period after your reservation time. If we haven’t heard from you by then, we’ll try to call, and if you’re unreachable we may need to open the table to our wait list.
Cancellations & no-shows:
We understand that sometimes plans change. In order to maintain a high standard of service and availability for all our guests, we ask that you cancel at least 24 hours in advance. This allows us to offer your table to other guests who are waiting for a chance to dine with us. Fees vary based on time of cancellation (or lack thereof), and will be charged to the card used to hold the reservation within 2 days of the reservation time. Understand Fees.
While you’re here:
Above all, relax and enjoy yourselves! Our kitchen is little too and we like to send dishes out as-ready. We encourage you to share food at your table, but can accommodate if you prefer not to. Do let your server know up front if you have any food allergies or dietary restrictions, and don’t be shy about asking questions.
Parking advice:
We’re located in a residential neighborhood with no parking lot. Street parking nearby is free and unrestricted, but does tend to be sparse during evenings. We recommend walking, biking, or Uber/Lyft/etc when possible. If you’re driving, please allow time to find a spot and pay attention to the signs. If you don’t get lucky on your first cruise around the block, we recommend heading one block south to Eastern Ave where metered parking runs from 8am-6pm and spaces are usually more available during dinner time. And if you’re still looking, Broadway to the west is another one to try.
We are looking forward to seeing you soon!
