    Ate the bar course, which is a reduced number of courses. Still perfect for us, and we left very satisfied. Amazing courses, amazing bread, and as expected amazing ingredients.

    Absolutely WONDERFUL! From when we walked in to when we left, everyone and everything was perfect. We ate at the bar, so we had a great time talking to the bartenders. The food was outstanding. Attention to detail was spot on. We can’t wait to go back for the dining room experience!

    Michelin star earned! The food and attention to details were outstanding. We sat at the bar and we never felt we had to wait to get attention. The cocktails, especially the old fashioned, were outstanding. We did do the wine pairing, but didn’t find that to be necessary if you stick close to home with the wines you like. We absolutely will be going back and highly suggest it for a special date night!
