Bustling and unpretentious, this Broadway staple dishes up hearty Mediterranean feasts built for lively family tables. Mornings kick off with custom Rio roast espresso alongside spicy blue swimmer crab scrambled eggs or sweet stacks. Later on, the dining room hums over massive pans of fresh seafood paella, fettuccine granchio, and bowls of garlic bread meant for passing around. When the glass doors open to catch the coastal breeze, long afternoons wind down over house tiramisu and a Baileys affogato.
- Generous Shareable Mains: Oversized plates like rich seafood paella and fettuccine granchio easily feed two to three people across the table.
- Standout Breakfast Lineup: Mornings feature house espresso blends alongside blue swimmer crab scramble and Nutella French stacks.
- Effortless Family Hospitality: Floor staff comfortably navigate high chairs, prams, and multi-generational groups without missing a beat.
