“An upscale restaurant where service and quality are still valued. We went on a Tuesday night so the restaurant was not as busy as it is on weekends. We were greeted at the door and offered a choice of having a cocktail at the bar (we arrived early) or going directly to our table. We chose the latter.

Food and drinks were all excellent with an attention to detail and quality. Staff were attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and wine list and friendly. Atmosphere is relaxed, but upscale.

If you are looking for a nice experience at an accessible fine dining restaurant, we highly recommend recommend. We plan to host a family brunch there during the holidays.”
