    This was our second visit —this time to celebrate a family member’s 30th birthday. Everything was great. The ambiance is just what you look for in a downtown restaurant serving fine food and cocktails - history plus sophistication. My King Salmon over risotto was a perfect combination of flavors and cooked just right. My Bellini Martini was delicious and a great way to celebrate. My only wish would be to have a little vegetable included with the main. I love this dining here and is my good to destination for a special evening..

    We sat on the patio and had the perfect anniversary meal. It was gorgeous outside and a calm, but classy environment. We had the margarita pizza and the salmon and a delicious orange mocktail. They worked around all of my allergies with ease and comfort. Will come back!

    Because of our wonderful server and the delicious food we would return again but only if the music was not blaring my 11 year-old grandson ended up with a horrible headache. It was Easter Sunday and a hard rock blaring through the dining room was extremely unacceptable. It showed complete disregard for the gas. However, our server did ask that the music level be turned down which it was although hard rock continue to Blair. A good management company will assess the event the time of day and the age group of the guest before they decide to choose a certain genre in music.. this restaurant has a wonderful opportunity to increase its business substantially, but is really missing the boat.
