    This is fine dining. The Caesar salad, Cajun tuna steak, and veal chop were delicious. An offer of a plate of biscotti on the dessert menu was a lovely choice that I haven’t seen for a long time, and a mint at the end of the meal was also appreciated. The service was excellent and on a weeknight, the noise level was low. What a special evening.

    Celebrating our friend's birthday and the dining experience was fabulous. The service was professional and thoughtful. All the appetizers, octopus, burrata with heirloom tomatoes, and endive salad were exceptional. The seafood entrees were absolutely delicious. My scallops, requested blackened, came out cooked to perfection. The pasta special with mixed seafood was wonderfully spicy with tender shellfish. Branzino and halibut entrees were beautifully presented and well seasoned. Coffee and dessert rounded out a memorable dinner. Thank you, Chris, Jessica and staff for all you do to make a celebration spectacular.
