Valet was friendly . Our Table was ready at reservation time. The staff was nice . The only issue we had was the wait for service. For some reason our food took awhile to come out . The place was not too busy since we had a late reservation but our meals took a lot of time to get to the table. Otherwise , the drinks tasted good . And they served me a candle lit cupcake for my birthday 🙂

From the complimentary valet parking, to the enthusiastic greeting by the people at the hostess stand, to the genuine “please come and see us again soon” salutations- everyone was pleasant. The food is outstanding and creative. Yes, it is on the more expensive side, but the small plates are actually BIG, so 3-4 is more than enough for two people. We ordered 4 is couldn’t finish everything - and I’m a solid 225 lbs.) We tried the octopus, the pear & goat cheese salad, the shrimp cocktail (which was over a spectacular salad/slaw and was outstanding!) and the Brussels sprouts. Had a delicious bottle of Cabernet and the brownie sundae for my wife for dessert. There were more creative choices for the dessert, but I’m told that PMS overrides that decision at times…. All in all, this is another Atlas gem. Thank you to the staff and management for always showing us a great time. We will see you soon.
