    I would rate this restaurant somewhere between outstanding and world class. The ingredients are fresh. The menu is creative. Everything is of top quality. Our waiter was the best I have ever encountered. It was if he read our minds. Dinners are expensive and worth every penny.

    What a neighborhood gem!! Food is expertly prepared and so tasty. We shared beet salad and then I had the Mushroom Shepherds pie and my husband had the Ratatouille. We shared a bagette and both had in house made desserts- the chocolate mousse- like one and the cheesecake- so light and not too sweet. I couldn’t even finish it. It’s a BYOB - plenty of food but we’re not big eaters. Romantic Atmosphere and our server was so pleasant and helpful. Will return. Reasonable prices for CC.

Our server, Tiffany, was wonderful.
