Beautiful, comfortable space. Excellent menu. The scallops were top notch. The side dishes were so well thought out and pleasing. Unfortunately the prawns were a like disappointing. But we’d had such an excellent experience overall I didn’t mind.

First things first, it was our anniversary & we were met with glasses of champagne in the house! Our appetizer of shrimp cocktail & French onion soup was SO FRESH. My husband loves French onion & this just became his #1. For main course, I ordered the seared scallops with butternut risotto - WOW, the butternut was incredible and the scallops were melt in your mouth. Husband ordered kansas city strip with potato dauphinoise, both which he's never had before & he loved them both! We will definitely be back!
