Date night started at the bar with exemplary service from the bartender. When seated for dining, service was pleasant. My spouse's scallops were delicious, and my elk with blackberry reduction was the best I've had in a restaurant. Only downside, dessert was too sweet (cheesecake) and they were unable to come up with coffee to accompany. But such a jewel of a restaurant off the beaten path.

Came here on a recommendation to celebrate our anniversary. Server was very inattentive. He was MIA for most of the night. Took our drink order. Once he delivered them, he just walked away. After a long wait he came to take our order. Did not know the specials. Someone else came to tell us those. They left, server came back afte4 about 10 minutes. Took our order. I had the special of Halibut. As soon as it was brought out, I knew it wouldn’t be good. The “fishy” smell was overwhelming. Fish was way overcooked. So dry. Vegetables and rice were overcooked as well. So mushy, it was like eating baby food! There were roasted carrots, but they were practically raw. Husband had the hanger steak. For $52, we expected more than 4 slices of steak. His vegetables were also overcooked Server ever came back to check on us. I did not eat my meal. Another server came to clear our plates. Did not ask how things were. Ifyoucharge upscale prices, the food and service should reflect that. Finally got our server to bring the check. We won’t return. And do not recommend.

Overall it was a good experience. The food was great! A bit pricey for the quality, but good. We had meatballs, pork belly, ahi sliders (the favorite) and empanadas for apps. Quail, hangar steak and burrata salad for entrees. Our server was nice and helpful. The live music was great! The only poor part of the evening was the hostess. She was not very pleasant, we arrived ~15 minutes early and she told us “to go wait in the lounge, I have no space for you at the bar.” Not offered to get a drink while we waited. There were open dinner tables, about 5 empty tables and 3 empty stools in the bar area. We waited in the lounge for 15 minutes before deciding to go get a drink and listen to the music. As we waited for our drinks she came up and told us “just order drinks at your table” when we said we had already ordered she said “well then you need to close out IMMEDIATELY before I’ll seat you so come find me when you’re ready.” She was just very unpleasant and basically rude … not a good first impression!

Always a great spot ! Good and unique food options with good rotating specials. Good music and ambience. We like the lounge area as well. The Humidor, next door is great spot to hang before or after your meal.
