    Ron was great, thorough and recommended the best items on the menu in order to make the ordering experience a bit simpler. The service from our waitress was excellent and we had plenty of folks checking on us and sharing interesting bits of information about the chef, the offerings, and upcoming events. Food was exceptional and came with plenty of free tastings that were a nice surprise. Will definitely be returning.

    My family and I enjoyed this restaurant very much! My sister loved all the vegetarian options. I ordered the grilled salmon salad which was delicious. We felt like we were in a lovely European cafe. They have a separate menu that includes tasty desserts. They serve lovely water in jars that includes lemon and sprigs of mint. Our server was also helpful, responsive and kind! I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try!
