    Fabulous as always. The ambience was perfect for a pre-holiday meal and the food was delicious. Exceptional service by Lilah and the team made it a delightful evening out on a chilly night!

    Wonderful evening with our friends. The meal was excellent, as was the wait staff. Staff recommendations were helpful, meal options were diverse, so we were all very happy with our selections. Our friends had never been to the restaurant before, they loved the meal and look forward to returning. We have been several times and have always enjoyed the food and service and will be back again.

    Fabulous spot to enjoy cocktails & dinner-Lovely ambience, friendly staff and great variety of delicious food offerings and drink choices-Not an inexpensive proposition but well worth the investment-We shall return-note of caution, if you want a weekend reservation make it as far in advance as possible and request the main-front dining room-prettiest of choices.

    One of our areas most interesting dining experiences. An incredible wine list with a menu that is exciting, creative and perfectly prepared. Pork chop melts in your mouth and the hanger steak temperature and flavor was fantastic. Oh did I mention service? Spot on!
