As usual, the food and service were exemplary. We shared several courses and entrees and loved all the preparations. (The Steak au Poivre, the Tuna Crudo, the Pasta with Pesto, amazing, and you don't want to miss the fresh Bread and Butter or the Date Cake. YUM! What a pleasure to sit down and relax in such a beautiful dining room.
