Our first time. Clam chowder was creamy and delicious. Lasagna terrific. Owner greeted us and made us feel very welcome as did rest of staff. Just a wonderful overall dining experience. Will definitely come again.

This small, Mediterranean family restaurant serves great food in a festive atmosphere, with music performed by the owner as an extra treat. We tried getting in without a reservation, and they were packed but asked if we'd mind sitting at the "family table." It was small and at the back of the dining area, but fine with us. The service...

This was a really nice experience. The food was great and the service was excellent. We really enjoyed our dinner here, and will definitely come back.

Very tight quarters, loud music,food not very special,in general would never return, don't understand how others gave it good ratings

A small space that is big on fun, friendliness and great food. If you have to wait for your table, the proprietor brings you a complimentary glass of wine. We also were given a complimentary dessert to share. Music and singing breaks out about every half hour. The best lasagna we have ever had. Looking forward to our next visit.

What a nice stop during our travels in Carmel. At first, there was a line out the door so we almost passed it by-however after a quick phone call we got a table/reservation 45 mins later. Just enough time to grab a drink next door. When we arrived we were greeted with a smile by the owner and sat down... More
