WE HAVE CLOSED. We were a casual, convivial place for great coffee, real wine & deceptively simple, seasonal, rustic food.

Some Testimonials

Thank you!


"I pay this place my highest compliment available: It reminds me of San Francisco.  The clean, minimalist interior combined with a carefully selected wine list and freshly made entrees and appetizers would not be out of place in SF or Berkeley's gourmet ghetto. ... Everything was delicious and perfectly on note.  I can't wait to come back."  Yao W. on yelp.com


"The food is truly amazing. The ingredients down to the olive oil are of the highest quality. Preparation is simple and delicious." Boerum Fella on menupages.com 


"Absolutely terrific. Well prepared, sophisticated food, great wine list, stylish decor, and super nice owners. If you live in Prospect Heights, Crown Heights, Clinton Hill, For Greene or Bed Stuy--do yourself a favor and check it out" Photogirl on menupages.com


"The food was extremely well prepared. Plenty of vegetarian and meat options. Lentil salad with egg and lardons was my favorite, although the white bean and pistou soup came in at a close second." Cailtlin C. on yelp.com

"Truly did not disappoint. The food was exceptional and the atmosphere warm."  anonymous on menupages.com
