    Service needs improvement. FYI there are multiple seating areas, the rear dining room seems more formal, the atrium is more casual and café like, request accordingly as your not informed of such when making a reservation. Bar is tiny, but bar tables are plenty. If you prefer drinking standing at the bar might be challenging on a busy night, if you like to sit and drink this spot may work for you.

    Beautiful ambiance, considerate, friendly service, delicious innovative dishes. Portions are on the small side, but quality compensates. Looking forward to trying brunch.

    Loved the food and service!.The space is beautiful and I would go back and sit in the main dining room. That would be deserving of the full 5 stars!
