    The beet salad was superb. But the scallops were way too salty and the squash pasta had way too much sauce to really taste the squash. the chocolate torte was really pretty good. I’ll be back though to try other things. One time isn’t a fair summary. The waitstaff was great.

    Service was extremely slow so much so that we were left with our menus with no orders taken (neither appetizers nor drinks) for 30-45 min. Our server was unable to speak to the wine selections which disappointed our client. Once we did order a bottle, he presented it but then informed us he had to serve cocktails to another table before he could open it for us. All in all, though the food was satisfactory, I will be taking clients elsewhere going forward.

    Food was good. Waiter did take dishes while we were still eating - using them for our split appetizer. The vibe is energetic. They were able to accommodate gluten free.
