Server was attentive, but not overly so. Had great recommendations, no questions when we wanted to share a dish. Cocktails are always top notch. Scallops with bacon and balsamic was delicious! Although not what we thought we would order, the burger was also amazing.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Tina Tartare stack. The addition of crunchy pear to the avocado was wonderfully creative. We’ve been coming for years and hope you never change the consommé popover with strawberry butter. Delicious as well as elegant.
