Make sure you stop by tonight & congratulate Chef Tommy on another turn around the sun.

Happy Wednesday! Tonight on special, Chef went out of his way and came in a little earlier this morning to kneed out some Sweet Potato Gnocchi - he's paired it in a Sage & Butter sauce and topped with a bit of Parmesan Cheese. A surprisingly light dish (by our standards) that can absolutely be shared. Maybe even order it as an app for the table. Go wild, who are we to tell you how to have a good time

We've settled into our new digs - come stop by for a drink & say hi. Take a lap around the floor. Enjoy the room as much as we do

As you may have heard, Sunday's 3rd Ave Festival has been postponed a week due to incoming weather || doesn't mean the party stops. We'll be opening up, like every Sunday, at 2PM ready to serve up some Sunday Sauce for the first time in our new spot.

Doors open at 4PM today - come unwind after a long week with some pasta and 🍷. We're no doctors, but we think it would help
