This restaurant is a GEM. Don't miss it. The food is spectacular, as one might expect from an owner who has been the Chef at Michelin star restaurants in NYC. The only difficulty you will have with the menu is choosing among the offerings. That difficulty gets worse after you have been there a few times, as each item you have previously had calls to you as you decide. One must be disciplined in forcing a new and different menu choice from your list of favorites. But rest assured, you will LOVE whatever new dish you select. Though the menu is moderately expensive, the portion size is ridiculous, In the many times my wife and I have been there we have always taken half of our dinners home for an excellent home meal the next evening. On top of the great food, great service, great value and quiet noise level, you will thoroughly enjoy Chef Joe's visit to your table during your visit. He is a joy to speak with and leaves a very comfortable sense of familiarity that will be there on your future visits. DON'T MISS THIS RESTAURANT!

Great food and service for a special romantic dinner. The decor matches a Gatsby theme and there is a nice lakeside view for those seated next to the windows or outside in warmer weather.
