Planning a party from out of town is no picnic. From start to finish, we encountered graciousness, professionalism & flexibility and in the end we had a FABULOUS event. Delicious food, lovely wines, perfect amount of care from service. Extra shout out to Ariel for helping us plan and Ian for serving us so well. The birthday tiramisu was BEYOND! Thank you!!! Highest possible recommendation.

My guest and I had the three course lunch and it was not only delicious but of good value. The server and busser were very nice. The atmosphere was lovely and perfect for a pre holiday lunch. And beautifully decorated. The tuna tartare especially was delicious!

Was extremely busy night. Staff tried their best, but not quite as good service as outside of a pre-Christmas Saturday night.

We were seated in an outside covered patio, while it had heaters it was freezing! The service was terrible, the food was not hot. I’ve dined here before but will not return .
