Gift Tips

  • Order the Argentinian skirt steak for a flavorful, tender cut that regulars love.
  • If you enjoy seafood, the seared halibut and the salmon with green beans and potatoes are standouts.
  • Check the live music schedule before you go—some nights are lively; outdoor seating offers a more conversation-friendly option.
  • For appetizers, try the warm goat cheese with marinara and toasted bread—it’s a crowd-pleasing start.
  • Ask the bar for cocktail specials or explore the wine list; both pair well with their steaks and wood-fired pizzas.
