DRINKS The offering of local wines and a mix of bubbles and beers includes a few trendy craft options, with a number on tap. The home-made ginger mint tea is delightful. SERVICE The waiters are attentive and enthusiastic, adding to a welcoming, no-fuss atmosphere. AMBIENCE A recent revamp has made this a comfy space that buzzes with families, singles and everyone in between. (ZK)
