Hippo

Great atmosphere, love that the menu changes with the season, and the staff are incredible. Happy this is one of our neighborhood spots. Drinks are great too.

My food here was delicious. I ordered the garden lettuce salad and ricotta tortellini. The tortellini was so tender and creamy and the sauce was full of flavor. The food was a bit overpriced for the portion size (I could have eaten another half plate of tortellini) but I'm glad I tried it. The service was a bit slow and it would have been nice if there was more than one small piece of complimentary bread per person, but these were trivial issues. This probably won't be one of my go to restaurants, due to the price, but I'd be happy to return for a special occasion (although the atmosphere is pretty casual).

Very good. Good food and very attentive service. Folding your napkin when you're absent from the table and fresh plates between courses kind of service. Also, the names of the special cocktails are not too be missed.

Excellent dining experience. Loved the food and the service was friendly and timely. Several stand out dishes. Wine list is super geeky with reasonable pricing.

Enjoyed the food. The place was packed on a weeknight which was surprising.

Need to adjust the overhead light by the table right next to the door way...there's a really bright light that shines on the host area that shouldn't also be shining on the table there. Otherwise the rest of the place was lit very cozy and relaxing.

Also need to move a table that's blocking exit by bar. Seriously listen to me before the fire inspector dings you on that. You can't block emergency exits. An earthquake, fire or God knows what and you've got a dangerous situation with an exit door being blocked by a table.

The Pizza place out front is excellent too.
