The ambiance was nice. The food was very good. A little pricey but nice for a special night out.
Everything was delicious and the service was great. We were able to enjoy each course and did not feel rushed at all.
Very eclectic menu that has something for all. Although some might consider the prices too high, the portion sizes are large on the most part. I ordered the whole bronzino fileted. I have ordered this dish in many restaurants and have never gotten a piece of fish that was as big as this. Other things we enjoyed were the Everything Bagel from the sushi menu, which was definitely shareable. One ordered the waygu beef sliders, which is on the small plates menu, and instead of getting the 2 pieces she expected, there were 3. It's plenty for a main course. My husband had the Picanha, which is a very dense, flavorful beef, so the small piece was plenty, and it was served with steak fries. Our friend had the special veal chop. The one criticism I would have is that there was only one card with the specials on it. The server didn't mention specials, and we only saw it as we were giving back the menus, which was soon enough to change one order, so good thing I noticed what it was. Water glasses were filled without the server being intrusive. Noise level was on the high side, but that's what happens on a busy Saturday night with 2 walls of glass surrounding where our table was. There should have been drapes over them during this kind of cold, as nothing but that could keep this cold out.
Chef Tom kickstarts his menu with carefully curated dishes that craft a lively, inviting atmosphere. Paired with attentive service and an exceptional selection of craft cocktails, it has become our regular destination for consistently great food.
Food was delicious, wait staff was kind, efficient and effective. The ambience was lively and warm. We'll be back!
It's an amazing incredible experience. The host sat us right away. The waiter was outstanding. The food incredible. The steak was perfectly cooked and the loaded baked potato out of this world. Well cooked and the cheese was delicious.
Overall, very good. What was distracting was the sound of the chairs scraping on the floor.
My friend and I had an early holiday dinner. The food was delicious, and the waiter was great! We sat and drank and eat and enjoyed each other's company for 2 hours. Our waiter was pleasant, and patient. He knew that we were there to catch up. We will go back again.
What a beautiful space! Our server, Lisa was on point, friendly, enthusiastic and professional! The cocktails were great, especially the Paper Plane. The beef carpaccio, Brussel sprouts and lobster papardelle were all outstanding. Finished off with the crème brûlée cheesecake, which was “the icing on the cake”! Will definitely return and tell everyone we know about the place!
Made 6 PM Saturday reservations and was seated immediately. Our server was Alyssa N. who was one of the best servers we've ever had. Personality, efficiency and attentiveness. You would be lucky to be seated in her section. Our Fried Calamari appetizer was outstanding and not greasy at all. (Finally a restaurant that knows how hot the oil needs to be to reduce that oily taste) It had a bit of a kick with the deep fried cherry peppers that come with the dish. The butterflied Pork Chop with Artichoke Hearts and Cherry Peppers was great. My wife's Lobster Pappardelle Pasta had a generous amount of Lobster in a light cream sauce. Impressive! If it's a quiet, romantic dinner spot where you're looking for quiet conversation, during the week reservations would be a better choice. Beautiful place, great dinner, great service, fair prices. We'll be back soon.

It was a bit loud in the restaurant. We were shocked to see how people were dressed For a fine dining restaurant. The service was great. The braised short ribs were amazingly delicious along with everything else that we ordered. Looking forward to going back.
Our table was a bit cramped, the food was a bit mild and flavorless though presently nicely. The service was okay enough but not at the level of quality for what we were paying. I would not run back again with the volume of competitors for the value. The ambiance was clean and classy except for the music.
This was our third time here and it's been great each time! The food, service and drinks are on point and the prices are fair. I'll definitely be back.
Brunch was great! Only request would be to add a few gluten-free choices - most of the mains are bread based, so the ability to swap with a GF option would be ideal.
This was our second visit and we ordered every sushi roll on the menu. Everything was delicious! Great drinks and atmosphere.
