    Beautiful venue, interesting menu, they were out of some things, would have liked to have known that before deciding. But our food was very good. Different but well prepared. Drinks were delicious.

    We were in the new room upstairs and all the way in the back. It was a little noisy because of party near us and the acoustics of the room. Felt a little out of the vibe of the restaurant which was why we were there for my daughter’s birthday- her pick. We had burrata and bread board which was yummy. I had the short ribs which were amazing. My husband had the beef special and my daughter had pasta with grilled chicken. They weren’t thrilled with their picks - I think because mine was so good. Our dessert was amazing and so good. It was a chocolate bomb of goodness. Our waiter was a bald friendly guy who was wonderful and is a really great asset and cheerleader for your restaurant. Sorry I’m horrible with names but he deserves a raise. I would definitely recommend and can’t wait to see what amazing things this group has for 2025!

    First off. We had a marvellous waiter, charming and friendly though my fiancée pointed out he was a bit nervous but he did a great job. The food is delectable, he quality and worth the price in my opinion. From the Escargot to the Duck Leg Confit to the Creme Brûlée. High Quality. For beverage I suggest the French 75 even though it is pricey. Yum!
