One of the few places to get sushi late at night, if the craving comes upon you. The staff is willing and courteous, but need a little training. A dark, mirrored bar and a narrow, all-white dining room are the contrasting environs at this Fourth Street restaurant. If the dining room is meant for summer, that's fine, but if the bar is intended to cushion patrons from winter's blasts, it needs real work. It's not all that comfortable to begin with, and the service could use some tweaking.
Food is eclectic, and the variety is ho-hum.
But all in all, there's no there here. But it would be real serendipity finding such fresh, authentic Italian cuisine anyplace. The restaurant doesn't have any identity except the ministrations of owner Giovanni DiGironimo, who is the compleat host. But, when you can bring your own wine and pair it with good food, you don't need too much atmosphere. If the eggplant stuffed with cheese is on the menu, try it.
