    Waiter was extremely attentive, great service overall. Tuna tartar was exquisite, however, the mushroom risotto was extremely salty, not good whatsoever. It’s a place to visit once.

    Our second visit here, and it confirms that this is a very special restaurant which can compete with the very best on the mainland. The gazpacho was light with a frothy sea foam topping and the grouper was flaky with an amazing base of subtle spicing. A memorably delicious meal and experience.

    What a pleasant surprise. Not only was this a nice upscale restaurant with delicious food. It was also a great experience due to the impecable service we received. We come from Miami where we are used to paying really high prices for mediocre food at best but this place was a delight. We highly recommend the Salmon tartar, the Onion soup Escargot, the Ricotta Cavatelli and the Chocolate moose. We will come back for sure!
