The food was amazing. The chicken wings were large, hot and crispy. The steaks were cooked absolutely perfectly with tons of flavor. The ribeye had almost no fat on it so we got to enjoy the l entire 14oz. We tried the pistachio cappuccino with the crem brûlée for dessert and they were both absolutely delicious. The ambience is very nice in there. Simple, yet quaint. The service was also good. Server was there to get us all we needed but never felt hounded or rushed. We will definitely be returning.

The food overall was delicious and ample portions. The fried feta although tasty, it was not spectacular and seemed too much dough and not enough feta taste. Croquettes were delicious with a spectacular sauce. Creamy Chicken with Risotto was spectacular. The Vanilla Bean Cheesecake with Carmel sauce topped with candied bacon was absolutely out of this world and knocked it out of the park!
