They have a very sophisticated model and they pull it off beautifully. It is rather pricey, mostly due to a highly exclusive wine list, but our meals were outstanding. From the sazarac to the veal porterhouse everything was very well prepared.

The slight downside, out of 5 cocktails that I sampled (no, I didn't DRINK 5 cocktails), I only considered one of them worth trying again.
