Although we make every effort to seat you where and when you choose, there may be situations where we are not able to honor your seating request.
During inclement weather we will attempt to re-seat our guests with outdoor reservations indoors, but due to our limited size we cannot accommodate all parties indoors.
We cannot accommodate parties more than ten people in the main restaurant. Please book our private dining room, Soffitta. More info here >
How many in your party?
Include children and infants who would need a seat, highchair or carseat stand.
At many of our tables, due to exit walkways and our small size, there is room enough for only two people, and at others just four people.
