The young man working the bar was…read morereally kind, which I appreciated, but overall the vibe felt very "deep South"and not in a way that felt welcoming to someone who looks like me. I was just passing through, heading to my hotel while traveling for work, and stopped in because it's super convenient right off the feeder road near downtown. The food was okay, nothing special. I got the sense that it's probably popular with locals, but personally, I didn't feel super comfortable and probably wouldn't go back or recommend it. Just kind of a forgettable experience overall.

We started with the lobster and shrimp dip--rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. For our entrees, my husband ordered the filet paired with a margarita, while I had the shrimp and a refreshing mule. Every bite and sip was perfection.

We'll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience.

We were here for brunch and I did enjoy my bagel but I asked for a side of scramble eggs and was really disappointed by the response that they only cook poached eggs.

Well we've given it a second chance and still not average. The food for example we ordered the…read morecaprese salad and it came with 5 slices of a barely ripe tomato. I know an heirloom is the choice but a ripe Roma would have been perfect. My wife's pasta was only warm and could have been a microwaveable meal. My pasta with sausage however was really very good. We actually shared mine and took hers home. The ambience is lovely and does have a relaxing feel and takes you to a local Italian ristorante. The service both times has been the bummer part. We waited for menus then they said they only had one, took it from another table and we shared. Jacob didn't offer any suggestions or specials. We ordered a bottle of Pellegrino and they were out of ice for the bucket. He later found some. I refilled out glasses the whole night as he never came back. Didn't check on how the meal was prepared, need anything, just ditched us. Asked about dessert and delivered the check. I've worked fine dining and Veronas falls short for $75 without alcohol. There are other options that I would choose.

Hi. Um. Okay. So... yeah. I came in around 11:00 pm because…read moreI was, you know, trying to see if there was live music or, like, a vibe. Not drunk. Not loud. Just standing there. Hydrated. Existing. At first it was cool. I met a couple of young guys. Super nice. Totally normal human interaction. We talked. It was fine. No problems. Excellent. Then they left. And, uh... yeah. Everything got weird. Like... record scratch weird. No bartender came over. No eye contact. No "hey man, what can I get you?" Just a lot of standing and looking past me like I was a ghost or maybe a very calm ghost. I tried to make casual conversation, because that's what people do in bars. And suddenly the room felt tense. Like I had accidentally walked into a staff meeting or a crime scene. At some point it hit me. Oh. They think I'm a cop. Not because I did anything. But because I was standing upright. And sober. And aware. Which, apparently, after 11 pm here is suspicious behavior. For the record, I am not law enforcement. I am just a guy who is cold and trying to hear music. I wasn't kicked out. I wasn't served. I was just... ignored. Like if they pretended I didn't exist long enough, I might fade away. So I left. Nothing dramatic happened. It was just awkward. Uncomfortable. And kind of impressive in a sad way. I walked into a bar and accidentally became a vibe check the place failed itself. This might work great for regulars or a younger crowd earlier in the night. But if you are a grown adult who knows how to behave in public, you may suddenly find yourself labeled "possibly undercover." Party on. I guess.

They don't know how to serve a big crowd. They brought our plate out one at a time after we waited two hours, and of course the food was cold. I think it was about 20 of us about seven people didn't even get their food So if you from California, this is not a restaurant to go to especially if it's a lot of you maybe they used to serving 2 to 3 people at a time so if you're from California don't go like I said specially if it's a lot of you services bad and like I said they're rude
