It's a must-visit every time we're in the Appleton area, and the consistency keeps us coming back. I've tried much of the menu, and I haven't simply liked everything--I've loved it. The carpaccio, halibut, and veal Parmesan are particular standouts, each among the best I've had anywhere. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, the service is second to none, and the wine selection is exceptional. Everything comes together for the kind of dinner you want to linger over. If you're in the Appleton area, do yourself a favor and make time for a meal here.

Everyone was happy and worried about how this experience would ruin us for other the other restaurants in the area. We showed up at 5:30p on a Saturday night and they were kind enough to squeeze us into their packed restaurant. We lingered over 4 courses where everything was fabulous. Our server was so exuberant about the food which was infectious. We started with the Shrimp Corn Salsa and Brussel Sprouts. Salad was Beet ricotta and greens. Everyone loved them. For entrees I tried the pasta special which was a smoked chicken and veg pasta and man the smoke was intense but delicious. Others had the Chicken Parm and the Sea Scallops. Dessert was tiramisu and the special peach cheese mascarpone cake.

I…read morecalled ahead to give them as much notice as I could, but it was definitely still very last minute. They were extremely friendly and accommodating and had no problem getting all of us taken care of. I kept it pretty simple and got a burger and a beer. The burger was really good and everything came out well, especially considering how many of us there were. What really stood out though was the service. One person in our group is extremely picky about how she likes her steak cooked and ended up sending it back three times. Each time they were friendly about it and genuinely seemed more concerned with getting it right for her than being annoyed about having to remake it again. For us to come in with 25 people on such short notice and still have everyone be so friendly and accommodating was really appreciated. They handled our group incredibly well and never made us feel like an inconvenience. Definitely a 5-star experience and somewhere I would come back to.

First time here, the real stand out dish was the Panko crusted walleye that my friend ordered. It…read morewas perfectly prepared. I ordered poorly and didn't even finish half of my plate. It was a Trio Diavolo, a trio of protein with squid pasta, and a red sauce. I didn't understand that the proteins were diced bits that were stirred into the red sauce pasta. I actually thought the protein was separate from a side of pasta. It disappointed me because I generally dislike seafood in red sauce, but honestly, that wasn't their fault so I still gave them a high rating. Service was friendly and playful. Pretty efficient and seemed to like their job. It is a beautiful restaurant with a pretty amazing view, even if the water is at very sad low levels. Maybe this is natural, I've never been here before. All of the wildlife/birds really enhanced the experience. Flocks of seagulls (not the band), and surprisingly large number of pelicans were wonderful to watch. You can see the riverfront exterior and distant bridge in my standard and 360° photos.

They have a ton of board games to play while you drink or wait for your food. Great place to meet up to wind down. I've been here twice, once for drinks and once for food. Great experiences both times. Service: Friendly and informative. They have a slim team but are incredibly efficient. Food: They pizza is incredible, the crust is untouchable. I ordered the Dirty Martini pizza (they don't have it anymore *cries in salty olive tears*). This pizza is one of a kind. If anyone else had this available in the Fox Valley I would go there every week to get my fix. It's salty, savory, creamy, crunchy and CRAVE-ABLE. We ordered one other pizza on the menu that is a standard offering, The 99 Corvette. This was okay but we both fought over who got more pieces of the Dirty Martini Pizza. I can't wait to come back here for more fun.

They do not have physical menus or servers to take people's orders; customers scan a QR code to get the online menu and order at the bar area. I can't speak to the craft beer and wine aspect to the restaurant, but they do offer some delicious craft sodas for people looking for nonalcoholic options. Although they have "normal" woodfire pizza choices (traditional pepperoni, cheese, etc.), the highlight is their rotating menu of inventive specialty savory and dessert pizzas. I found their "normal" pizza to be just ok, but the tomato soup pizza (Souper Slice) was incredibly flavorful and unique! It's definitely worth taking the leap of faith for some of their more out-there sounding pizza options. Since they have limited oven space to cook the pizzas, food can take a while to come out if it's busy. Plan ahead and use that time to relax and enjoy their drinks, or come during an off-peak time for less wait.

This place is such a hit for me that I will absolutely be coming back the next time I'm in town. The food/ingredients are so fresh and you can tell they are local.

The place is also such a cute little place and has a great ambience for a date night especially. It's tucked away from downtown yet it's right by it. I highly recommend anyone to try this spot.. just be sure to make reservations since it's a small space and it fills up very quickly, even on weeknights. It could be difficult to get a table as a walk in.

The first thing to know is that servings are ginormous, so order accordingly! I ordered the breakfast sandwich (just a croissant with some ham and cheese) and it took up the whole plate, no lie! It was also delicious, the cheese was cheesy (and messy, which was a plus and a minus), and the croissant was light and fluffy. I also had one of their flavored lattes, and it was delicious as well. I know they use homemade syrups and it shows. Pro tip though-the lattes fill you up (not so great when they also give you huge portions of food). The staff is friendly, and service is pretty good. On our second visit we did wait quite a while for our food-it was busy, but not packed, so that felt a little off. But otherwise service has been great. They do have an outdoor seating area-we unfortunately haven't been able to try it yet, but I would like to as it looks great!

Very tasty, great quality toppings (which I won't list, leaving to you to look up on the menu), very nice thin crust, and lovely sauce.
