This is truly my most favorite restaurant over many years but not a good experience last night. A private party with DJ in a room next door made it challenging to have a conversation with my husband. Although the food was good we cut our time short and left. Perhaps closing the door for the private party would be a suggestion.

The food was just amazing!! My son had the lobster special and I had the beef Wellington. One of the best meals we’ve ever had. And service is so friendly.

My husband and I had a lovely Sunday morning brunch. It was excellent! The quality of the eggs were so fresh, the menu was excellent and the coffee and fresh French bread to start made it extra special. Quality and double quality of great ingredients and a balanced menu. Highly recommend.
