    Bistronomic - from the warm welcome to our departure - was perfect for our group’s celebration. The authentic, creative and delicious cuisine, professional staff, music, atmosphere and location were great! Menus were filled with interesting offerings. Meals and drinks ordered, even the coffee, were well worth the cost. We’ll return.

    Alpana made for an excellent celebration dinner for my and my fiancée's proposal! The foliage and soft lighting in the evening made for a charming and fairly intimate ambiance, and the food was just delicious — we got the vodka and pesto pastas, as well as an excellent peppermint sundae. We enjoyed the complimentary non-alcoholic "wines" for the celebration too! On top of all that, the prices were impressively reasonable given the quality they provided, adding up to a very rewarding visit.

    This is our favorite place in the city for many reasons. The drinks, the food, the look and feel of it, but the number one reason we keep coming back is the people who work at RL. It was a wildly busy evening this last time we came in and while many would have folded, the team went out of their way to take care of us. And that’s what sets this place apart. You’re cared for here. We were listened to and made comfortable. It ended up being a wonderful evening all thanks to obviously the food and drink, but mainly each employee we came in contact with. Come for the lush martinis, the perfect dover sole, the rich wood and dim lights but keep coming back for the people.
