   Service and food are outstanding. Even menu items I would typically not try - are excellent.

   The decor was stunning but the temperature control was very off balance. The back fireplace room while fabulous was intensely warm, so much that we asked to be moved. The front of the house with the big open doors was very nice and very comfortable. The wine and cocktail service was very slow and I’ve never been a big fan of a martini in a coup glass. The charcuterie board was nice, but again very slow service. Perhaps the still newness of the kitchen in getting its rhythm. The gem salad looked wonderful as my dinning companions had, but my wedge was a little off. It was presented more like a soup with a ladle of a vinaigrette at the bottom of the bowl and iceberg lettuce wedges floating on top. The blue cheese crumbles were more like tiny drops hidden behind everything. The tomatoes mushy and crushed as you tried to slice them with a dull butter knife. For main, I ordered the pork tenderloin which I was told would be presented in medallion with a perfectly cooked pink center. They are tough, overcooked, and unseasoned pork chunks for which I returned. The potatoes wedges were a delight, but wish they did have some seasoning (other that salt), but nevertheless very good. Dinner at 7:30 was completed in almost 3 hours. Not good for table turnover. The bill for 4 people with 2 bottles of wine and martinis, roughly $400. Infer what you will from that info as you please. Final thought, I do wonder if the ratio of starter to mains would characterize this as more a lounge for drinks and Hors d'oeuvres rather than a dinner service. I think that would be fabulous!!

   One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Orlando/Winter Park. Service was outstanding, cuisine was perfection and great ambiance. Thanks to our server Taylor and to the Chef who made time to drop by our table to check on things. On our list of favorite dining places!

   The food was excellent as well as the service. The only problem was the wait in between courses. We waited at least 30 minutes in between each course.

   The whipped ricotta appetizer was great! The butternut squash soup was good, and the chopped salad was ok, nothing special. I was a little turned off by the fact that I asked for a Manhattan served up and they charged me $3 for each Manhattan for being served up. I’ve never had that experience before. A little tacky in my opinion. The atmosphere was very cool.

   Excellent food with solid but not overbearing service. A welcome new addition to the Park Ave dining scene!

    Food was very good. The pasta dish was a little salty but the other dishes we had were very good. Some thing were a little pricey for what you get. Our server Mari was SUPERB!!!! Ambience is great. Will be coming back!
