The lowdown
A chef-owned Italian and Mediterranean bistro on Eastern Avenue, also home base for the Vermont Catering Company. The dinner menu runs from house pastas and veal saltimbocca to blackened salmon, steak tips and a 12 oz NY strip, with a full bar and curated wine list. There is a cozy dining room and bar plus a street-side patio in warm months, with live music on weekends and special prix fixe nights.

What people say
The word around town.
Guests frequently praise the filet, steak tips and French onion soup and appreciate the upscale-but-relaxed setting for date nights and celebrations. Service is usually described as attentive, though some note short staffing. Prices are viewed as high for the area, with most feeling the quality justifies it; a few dishes get mixed marks.
