    What a great location and a fine menu. Interesting choices on the menu and the food was tasty. The server was perfect amount of attentive and leaving us alone too. I wish the wine list was a little more robust, especially by the glass. We ended up with a bottle, but I found the choices not as interesting as I hoped. Also, I asked they make it special for a birthday and they did this! And you can't beat this location, especially at the holiday season!

    What a gem! Our experience could not have been better. Our service was very attentive, and between the four of us choosing from different items on the menu we all loved everything!! Normally that does not happen. The two salads for the table both had wonderful flavors with such a nice variety of items in them. Our apps, dinner entreés and desserts were all just as exciting and yummy!! And the venue is charming, and almost a contemporary Victorian feel. We will definitely go back!
