THIS IS THE BEST STEAK AND SERVICE I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!You can cut this filet mignon with a fork!Every single bite was a delightful taste sensation! ?And our server, Mavie, was outstanding! Ask for his section, and when he asks any questions, just say "Do it the way YOU would do it!" Everything he did was perfection! From the Octopus appetizer, to the steaks, to the asparagus! Everything was perfection!I'll be back soon for more amazing meals! ??My hats off to the chefs as well! Amazing, amazing, amazing!EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING!

What makes my experience fantastic when I dine out is 2 things , the food and the service. And both were exceeded. Our waiter was friendly, thorough, and accommodating. He went beyond with bringing dessert to us when he found out my friend was celebrating his birthday. And the food was full of flavors . The portion and presentation was beautiful. I had the crabcake on brunch menu. And the ambience was perfect for easy Sunday feeling . Overall outstanding experience!

I have not been here in a while, but I dined with colleague on a rainy Tuesday night. I was reminded of why I love this restaurant. They have maintained their high food and service standards. We sat at the bar, a professional singer with a guitar was singing beautiful soft music in the background while we enjoyed our drinks and meal. We shared the smoked salmon and tempura calamari appetizers, and the seafood jambalaya, and finally the bread pudding. Every thing was delicious.

Excellent dinner ambience and soft live music was wonderful. Food server was very nice and kind and offer all the assistance we desired. Manager came by to be sure. Love this place.

This is one of our favorite restaurants. The food is always high quality with multiple options for meat, fish and vegetarian dishes. The service is always good and the waiters have been there along time, so we often get to talk to the same waiters. Wine list is good and they allow you to bring wine from your own cellar with a reasonable corkage fee.

Great food and service, ambiance is perfect as is the music, fair price for quality of food and considering where it is located, highly recommend for a first date or special occasion.

Sat on the bar side with live music. Loved it! There is also a “quiet side” but totally recommend the live music. Enjoyed shrimp risotto and guest had paella. Both outstanding. Definitely going back soon.

the Food was delicious and the Service provided by Juan was excellent. We requested a table in the dining room to be away from the music in the bar but unfortunately the music was so loud that talking and being heard was extremely difficult....we noticed that the people at the 2 other table that were occupied also seemed to be having difficulty with the noise. We will definitely give it another try.....

Made a reservation for Valentine’s Day originally at 8:00 pm and they pushed us to 9:00 pm. Place overbooked and we waited 54 minutes to be seated. ONLY WHEN WE SAT DOWN, did they mention they did not have their conventional menu, only had a valentines menu which costed $125 per person. I’m okay with the amount of money, what I’m not okay with is NOT DISCLOSING THIS. They overbooked because of their greed, and the service was, quite frankly, terrible. Catty hostesses and waiters that were rushing us. They did not mention anything about price, menu, or wait upon booking the reservation by phone call. The website does not mention anything about Valentine’s Day either. Terrible experience. Way to ruin a night. Would rate 0 if I could.

Arrived early for a 9pm reservation and waited 30 minutes before being told there was around 10 minutes left, then my girlfriend was told there were still 10 people ahead of us. Hostesses were rude to my girlfriend. Manager was “too busy to talk.”
