    Fanatic visit. Came for our anniversary and was very happy. Made reservations during scheduled music and was blown away with how good they were. Our food was top notch and worth the price. Would love to come back!

    The food was delicious, hot and amazing from the appetizer to dessert. The atmosphere is charming. The service was a little slow at times, but still a great experience. Will definitely return.

    Fairly extensive menu, including fine dining with vegetarian options as well as sandwiches. Full bar. Lovely atmosphere in old building. Tables nicely spaced apart. Friendly, attentive staff. Live jazz guitar was an unexpected bonus.

    The atmosphere was laid back with a musician playing his guitar on stage. The food was amazing! And, the wait staff had smiles on their faces from ear to ear. Thoroughly enjoyed our night out. Will definitely be back!!

    The restaurant was too loud, even before the music started. Our server was incompetent. We had to ask for refills on water and coffee multiple times. I expected really good service because it is part of a culinary school and I was extremely disappointed.
