    I had the baked oysters and a salad. Two glasses of sparkling rose. $50. The food and wine was delicious. The bartender was attentive and knowledgeable about the food and wine. It's expensive but so is everything else these days. I'll go back.

    The specials are always good and a great go to but my husband was sadly disappointed when saw they took the Franciscans Paella off the menu and started charging more for extra bread plate. But the food has always been good and good sized portions .
