    Had friends from out of town. Went for the ambiance, which is still there. We probably should have asked for seating in the bar in order to hear the pianist. Our waiter was very nice and attentive. The deviled eggs and shrimp cocktail were good. The Beef Wellington was a bit more than medium rare and the sides were cold. The waiter brought another dish of sides as soon as he could. It was just “ok” all around.

    Very relaxing atmosphere. Steak frites were very good but we have had better. Bananas foster delicious. The entire dinner a bit pricey the $5 charge for bread was worth it.

    Great service by Brandon and the team. Filet mignon was cooked perfect. Medium rare. I am a fan of Frank Sinatra. Brandon did a great job of pointing out some history of the restaurant.

    I had a very nice time and so did my hubby whose bday we were celebrating. We were shown to “Melvyn’s” table and its significance was told to us. The host and our waiter were both lovely people. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. Delicious!!
