Wonderful experience, all around - as always. Food and service exceptional. The room has a great vibe, notwithstanding its relatively small dimensions. The wine list is surprisingly good, with all price points well represented. Staff is always friendly, professional, and eager to please. We've been coming here for over 25 years and have virtually never been disappointed.

What happens when a restaurant just keeps hitting the mark every time? You frequent the joint! Been there enough to say that after finishing dinner you think darn it, what a cool evening. It is just consistently an enjoyable night out because they check all the boxes, great vibe, great drink, great food, great service...good times!
