Carla V Complimentary bookended arrival and digestive pours
Hospitality begins the moment you step inside with house welcome drinks and finishes with house-poured digestive drinks to bookend the evening.
We received a warm welcome and a refreshing welcome drink the moment we walked in. Later in the evening, the owner came by our table to chat. He was incredibly warm, sharing stories about his hometown in Italy and the wines we were enjoying. To top off a perfect evening, we were treated to a complimentary digestive drink to end the night.
