    Everything we ordered was delicious. Service was excellent. Enjoyed a drink at the bar before dinner. Four of us shared a 46punce Porterhouse, duck fried rice and Brussel spouts. Plenty of good. Had 2 apps first Finished the meal with Rainbow cake. Only complaint was how fast the cake was whisked away and boxed as if they were ready to turn our table

    The only thing I would change about our dinner. When the chocolate gateau was served it served with a side plate for each of us. Unfortunately the plates were really warm. They must have come directly from the dishwasher to the table. Since the dessert is served with gelato, a warm plate seemed out of place. This small gaffe notwithstanding, the entire experience was outstanding. Our food was full of flavor, the room was full of life, and service was spot on.
