    I would have given a higher score but had trouble paying after the meal. My corporate card didn't work. Called to confirm it was indeed active. Personal card did not work. It was only after another person's credit didn't work that it was confirmed their system was not working. It was also revealed, later of course, that this credit card machine issue had happened before. So after probably 15 minutes, maybe more, I was informed there was a 20% tip because my party had six people. There was absolutely no apology to me or to my table of guests following the credit card snafu. The food was fine. The decor is dated. And obviously the technology is, shall we say, not reliable.

    I love going there. Two weeks in a row. I had the trout almondine and pomme frittes and warm bread and a meatball. I also had my favorite wine Santamargarita and crème brûlée for desert. Everything was fabulous. If I could I would come to your restaurant every week.

    Service and food was great. The parking garage was not the best experience for our first time, but overall nice fancy dinner date.
