    Outstanding, in every way. Ellie and I at a Michelin 3-star a couple of weeks ago. While ROLi has a very different vibe (in a great way), the experience was every bit as special. Kudos to all involved: owners, chef, servers!

    AHHHHMMAAAZZING! From start to finish. The food is sooo special, creative flavors perfectly paired and prepared. Don't leave without trying their pasta or burrata salad w/squash, or the most most most wonderful, warm, melt-in your mouth focaccia. Or the fish of the day. Wish we could have tried everything! And what a show from their kitchen! Sit at the chef's table and watch this team of professionals put out the most delicious and beautiful dishes, in the most perfectly choreographed way. Great service, too, from an experienced team in a great space. Bravo, Chef! To you and your whole team! Can't wait to visit again!
