Overall it was an exceptional Mother's Day outing. One of our steaks was over-cooked, however it was still a very good cut and seasoned perfectly. We highly recommend the mussels, very tasty. I will definitely come back to try other menu options.

Excellent restaurant and my favorite in Bloomington, Il. The food is very delicious, desserts are decadent, and they have a wonderful drink list (the Sweet Caroline martini is my favorite). We’ve tried about every type of entree from shrimp tacos to the prime rib. Delicious every time. The service is amazing too! We are always greeted by friendly hosts and the wait staff is readily available and attentive to our needs.
