Charming neighborhood feel. Smallish and off the beaten path but only a mile west of 680. Creative American cuisine with eclectic influences. Loving preparation and appealing presentation. A favorite!Upvote1Downvote
Mary Ann SullivanDecember 23, 2018The food was good. The spinach fettuccine with lobster is in a light asiago sauce. The gorgonzola penne is in a light sauce as well. It is not in a heavy sauce. The service is excellent.Upvote1Downvote- Ray LawrenceJuly 17, 2013French onion soup, crab cakes, halibut, and seafood linguini with marinara sauce are all to die for. Chef-owner Gerardo Wence is a friggin magician of the kitchen.Upvote2Downvote

- Justin SullivanNovember 11, 2014Get the Wence's Chucken Gorgonzola pasta - walnuts, mushrooms, chickens, grapes, tossed in a Gorgonzola sauce. Warm grapes explode flavor in your mouth.UpvoteDownvote

- The Chx Enchilada soup and street tacos are delish! A bit slow on service but the food is super!UpvoteDownvote
Don NimuraSeptember 22, 2017Good food, but the dining room is deafening. Concrete walls mean that its an extremely noisy room. Get a table outside.UpvoteDownvote- Happy hour menu is awesome! All food looks really good so farUpvote3Downvote
- Lana LSeptember 18, 2013Good food, but for some reason the burgers always come out medium well even if you ask for medium or medium rare :/UpvoteDownvote
