The cost is very reasonable for the quality of food. Besides the restaurant being absolutely gorgeous and the food delicious, the service is the standout for sure. They use your name when seating you and serving you. We went for brunch to celebrate my friends birthday and they provided us complimentary dessert with a candle and chocolate, it was so personal.
