    Amazing food, service and experience. It’s definitely a place to expect to have a higher bill. However it is worth it!

    The food was tasty, but it was overpriced, and they nickeled and dimed us with extra charges that were not noted until the bill came. The service was slow and inattentive, and we had to go looking for our server several times. A disappointment.

    The food was delicious but our server Elaina was outstanding. My very fussy 90 yo mother didn’t like a couple of things. Elaina must have reported it so the very gracious and professional manager replaced it. All in all it was a very lovely Mother’s Day‼️💝

    The restaurant has become more Ho- hum. It could use a bit of an overhaul and perhaps some different dishes added to the menu.

    I’d been wanting to head here for quite some time- I have heard this is THE old school spot for cocktails. The espresso martini was delicious as were some of the other featured cocktails. The bread and butter was a delight and we shared some appetizers all were good. The service is the standout here- attentive and thoughtful and just the right amount of check ins. I’d come back for an entree.
