Since the late 90s days of the Downtown Cafe, I have only delighted in the culinary art and warm generous nature of Graziano Tecchio. Grazi takes food into his hands with love and respect, rendering perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked dish after dish. We love sitting at the counter, watching him stir, sautee and plate...for Us and for others. We love his intensity and his humor. Cannot recommend more highly.
Really special food, intimate ambiance, gluten-free alternatives, reasonable prices. I can't recommend this place highly enough.
Had an incredible time, you can tell the chef enjoys experimenting and being creative with his dishes. Server Zack was phenomenal, very informed on the menu and the specials. I had the smoked trout and my girlfriend had the guanciale, both were incredible as well as the heirloom tomato salad we had as an appetizer.
I can’t say enough about the quality and deliciousness of this restaurant. Very Mediterranean. Handmade pasta. Local grass fed meat and other ingredients. Vegans and vegetarians can eat here too. Yummy yummy yummy.
two days ago was the first time we visited this excellent restaurant. But It is no doubt not the last time. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the excellent service, with the fine cooking and fine drinks and with the decent charge. We will definitely come back in a short time.
As a staff member and customer, I’m treated like family from both ends. As I customer I love the food, and as staff, I assure you everyone who comes for a meal will love the food. We always ensure a comfortable environment, great food, and great service. Ask me more about the food in person! (By the way we clean and disinfect every night! -don’t be afraid to stop in!)
Stopped by today for take out. Had to call from the street- asked for vegan options and they immediately had several to offer. We chose polenta- one with a medley of mushrooms and the other with ratatouille. Took a walk on the Strand and came back, food was ready. Money went on a chair, food left there after. Appropriate social distancing. Got home and wow! So delicious! Thank you! Go support this sweet place!
Awesome food reasonable prices.
Every time I dine here with my wife we can't believe how amazing the food is for such a reasonable price. Serving delicious food to neighbors he loves is clearly a life passion for Graziano, and you'll see it first-hand in this cozy little cafe in Kingston because you can watch him prepare your meal in the open kitchen.
