Great food and great service. We especially enjoyed the grilled octopus, hummus with beets, and fried zucchini and eggplant. The favorite main was the halibut

Vie was so good we were wondering how the change to Petite Vie would compare. Gotta say we were more than satisfied and now we are just as excited to go back! Food was phenomenal and so was the service. Always helps when you sit at the bar and Pat takes care of you too!!! They kept just enough of the old to make the new even better!
