Food not worth the price IMO. Little overpriced. Brought check early and added an extra water to the bill and they made a fuss when I wanted a receipt of the refund because they had to charge me twice.

This restaurant remains a favorite in Carmel. Very warm and professional staff. Welcoming owner. There is an extensive menu and a good wine list. Very good quality and value. This is a regular choice for us but it certainly measures up to a special occasion dining experience.
