Michelle and James collectively have 20 years of restaurant experience under their belts before they even met. From childhood Michelle loved watching the classic PBS cooking shows like Julia Child and always dreamed of opening a restaurant. As a child, James spent countless hours in the kitchen with his Sicilian grandmother, mom, and dad; Sundays were filled with making big family dinners.
So when they started their life together and Michelle presented the idea of opening a restaurant the idea came to fruition in a very natural way. After falling in love with the town, and the Water Street Market, they decided to take the plunge and signed a lease on the spot. Since then, they have added three amazing kids to the mix, all the while serving thousands of happy customers and creating a place that feels like home.
