Soooo delicious. We were lucky enough to get in right before the kitchen closed and had the best tomato soup I have ever tasted! We were in and out rather quickly and most places hate when you come in close to closing. We made it quick but would definitely go back. Try the tomato salad with goat cheese. We also... More
