    The Short Rib was 5 star it was so good. We dined on the Restaurant Week menu. The rest of our meal was 3-4 star. Halibut was not overcooked and was real good. The seafood chowder with bacon was very good. Salmon was cooked perfectly but need some seasoning.The desserts both the almond torte and blueberry bread pudding was not better any better than 2 star. We all sampled each entree and desert. It was the overall consensus.

    Cosmo was awful! $18.00 for a drink which was the worst I've had in a long while & $12 for 4 slices of bread which doesn't need lemon in the butter, didn't taste good, gave bread extra sourness! Single dinner was $110 & Ive been here b4...not the same!

    Great Arizona Restaurant Week menu. Friendly service. The halibut was slightly overcooked but went well with the polenta.

    Enjoyed restaurant week value but the 1/2 portions of appetizers and dessert was disappointing. The food was all delicious just wish everything was full portions.

    First time checking out this restaurant and picked it from the Arizona Restaurant Week offerings. The food was amazing, the service outstanding and we appreciated the happy hour wine specials.

    I've been coming here for years and bring many out of town guests to dine here. A bit disappointed with my halibut this time. It was a little dry. I've had better at your restaurant. Must have been an off night. beautiful atmosphere and our waitress was wonderful!!!!!

    We ordered to Fondue it was just ok. Not very thick a little to runny. The rest of the meal was good. The chopped salad was really good.
