Not what was expected judging by the pictures on the website which looked a lot more intimate for fine dining. It was an open concept with bar open to the booths and tables and very loud even though we dined early at 5:00pm. For the prices charged, we expected more. Food was a hit and miss. Presentation was nice and service was decent. Better suited for business meetings. Parking was a nightmare. A very disappointing birthday dinner. In my opinion, not a fine dining place, but rather an after-work spot for drinks and then just stay to eat; go elsewhere for fine dining.

Overall we were not pleased with the restaurant. My short ribs were so fatty they were unenjoyable. I have been to much more reasonable restaurants with exceptional short ribs. The sides were too small. I'm not sure we will return.

We're so sorry to hear about your experience with the short ribs, Jana. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future.

Great dinner out to celebrate a special occasion. Lamb chops and Cornish hen were amazing, as were the donuts and espresso martinis for dessert. Our server, Hayley, was the best.
