The food was far better than I even expected and the service was outstanding. It’s hard to beat this beautiful location.

Great vibe and excellent service. The food was interchangeable with every other small plate place in town - good enough but not interesting. The service and ambiance was really great. Will definitely come back for a drink and an appetizer.

Everything was great! Our server was awesome. Glad this place was on Opentable- from out of town and unfamiliar with the area. Great booze selection!
