    A wonderful well staffed place with smiling attentive servers and food choices that reach every palate and can be matched to a wide variety of excellent wines and perfectly crafted flavorful cocktails. We sat outside at a perfect size table for 4. It is one of those places that will hit your pocket book hard, but you are satisfied that you got what you paid for: A beyond excellent chef crafted prix-fixe menu (with choices) and a staff that knows what they are doing to make a lunch one to remember! My sole complaint was the corkage fee cost of $75 when my specific vintage and wine was not on the menu (but I must admit that if it were on menu, the markup would have exceeded the heightened corkage fee). Bravo over all and will be back when my wallet can take it!!

    The staff was very welcoming and made the entire experience very enjoyable. We had a very generous waiter who made sure to meet our needs and was very friendly. You could feel the history in the building and the food was exquisite. We loved the carrot soup, beet and orange salad, halibut, chocolate soufflé, and creamsicle tart.

    Everything was excellent. This was my favorite meal of a highly food-centered vacation in the area. No dish was too heavy but we all left extremely satisfied. I ordered the beet salad, halibut, and cheese board and enjoyed the light, fresh flavors that were well balanced in each dish. I didn’t know still water costs money, though.

    I've eaten at VP many times. this was the first time where the food was underwhelming. My game hen entree looked like strips of chicken tenders and was very dry. My chocolate dessert - can't remember what it was called - was also not very good. Very surprised.
