It was very pleasant New Year Day Brunch. We had an excellent experience. The only one thing I would like to comment on is that even though the 20% tip was already added to the bill , on the credit card receipt, it was asking again for a tip ! We thought it was kinda tacky....

A unique dinning experience. It was our first time and the staff did an excellent job of guiding us to a wonderful experience. We got to enjoy several different types of seafood and tried two different steak types. Everything was prepared well and tasted fantastic. The sommelier was helpful and paired our meal with very nice wine.
