    Took my girlfriend for Valentines Day weekend. The menu they offered was big and every stage of dinner was amazing, from the Wedge salad with goat cheese, Deviled egg and the highlight was the steak and potato cooked in duck fat. The Pear margarita was amazing and the red wine paired with steak is unmatched. Alysha our server was amazing, really made the restaurant feel like home. We’ll definitely be back

    What a wonderful experience. Been here many many times. It feels fresh every time. Feels like you’re in Europe, you forget where you are at. Beautiful restaurant, excellent attentive service, great food, best sangria ever. We are here the night we got engaged and just celebrated our 30th engagement anniversary here. Had many landmark evenings here. Such a romantic place. Can’t wait to celebrate more evenings here.
