The successor to the beloved Bella Mia has done alright for itself. – – The Food – Leftover from Bella Mia days, the salmon ravioli has a wide following, as does the lasagna, but many of the lighter linguine and fettucine dishes show a dazzling simplicity and careful melding of flavors.

lovely ambiance

This is a lovely place with great ambiance. We were there for brunch and the food was yummy although the crab and shrimp melt was cold. Other than that it was great.

The food quality has decreased

I love the ambiance at this cute little Victorian. But since I started going there several years ago, the food quality has diminished. Once the green beans were so al dente that I had to send them back twice! And worse, the seafood ravioli tasted like the seafood was past its prime. I like the wine list though, although I'm no connoisseur. This place has my favorite atmosphere of any restaurant around here, and I just wish wish wish the food was predictably excellent, every time.
- Pros: Lovely architecture, wallpaper, lighting
- Cons: Food
