Evidently, Thursday, Friday and Saturday the city has valet parking, but it was not yet open when we arrived. The uphill walk after dinner and drinks was a challenge for our older group of 4.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMIt was absolutely delicious,It was absolutely delicious, as it always is!!!

I need to come in for brunch/lunch sometime to check out the afternoon scene! I will see you soon.3/19/2013 12:00:00 AMFood was very good....bothFood was very good....both of us had the Chilean Sea Bass special and one of the best I have ever had. I would suggest that they change their "salad" offering....way too expensive for all of their salads (and even though they say to share, there is not enough to share). Darren himself was very active in meeting guests....very charming.3/1/2013 12:00:00 AM
