It was very cold and extremely drafty; there was no barrier between the front door and the tables except a thin curtain which was used half the time. When the door opened an arctic blast hit our legs. The food was carefully prepared and well presented but it was over top. Each dish was overly complicated in flavor and too much effort to make it gourmet worked against the end result.

Food was good but very expensive for the area. It’s a set menu - four courses- for $64. Other than that you have two items to order from the bar menu. Disappointing.

Meal was wonderful - creative flavors and beautifully presented. Coupled with excellent service, our experience was comparable to any Michelin-starred restaurant! Can’t wait to be back again!
