   We had to wait about 10/15 minutes after our reservation to get seated at our table. The food was okay. Definitely used to be a lot better. Our service was somewhat lacking as we only saw our server 3 times over the 90 minutes we had but he was very nice. They do have good wine thats a no brainer. But just wish our experience was like it used to be.

   Excellent wine. outstanding server - Janae. Food was very good. The only complaint would be the filets we had were suppose to be med. rare but they were more of medium to medium well. Great flavor just over cooked. Also the hostess was a bit unfriendly. Asked a question and she said she wasn't the waitress. Also told us there was a 90 minute limit on dinner time. Just didn't see professional. Would dine there again and try the wine tastings.

   The new Chef is on his game! I had the new Lemon Tortellini and my wife had the salmon. We both enjoyed the delicious flavors and presentation. We split Brussel sprouts and a cup of the delicious jalapeno soup which is a must every time we dine here. The new item that may have been just for Valentine's Day was the butter cake. literally one of the very best desserts we have ever shared. We were served by Janay and that is always a pleasure. She knows her menu well and has become familiar with our choices in the past and often tells us how we want things done before we can tell her. There is a hostess at the front entry, often 2 are on hand but this is the one that is not as tall of the two. She makes our welcome pleasant every time and she was able to seat us in our requested table which really makes for an even more enjoyable experience.....so many thanks to her!

   We all enjoyed it very much. Our server was very knowledgeable and was able to recommend many dishes because he had tried many of the dishes. He gave us excellent service and the food was delicious. Ambience inside the restaurant was beautiful.

    Both of did wine flights. Great wines. We also both had the different soups of the day. Also good. We had a table up front (inside) and the front door was kept open. A nearby heat lamp would have been helpful. We will be back!
