Beet salad was delicious! Had the filet with mushrooms. Perfectly cooked to order and very tender. Love the polenta that comes with it. Service was excellent, and this particular evening it was very quiet. Can be a bit chilly in the restaurant, but we dress accordingly. Highly recommend for a really good meal or special occasions!

We had a table for 2 in the bar area which was a bit noisier than when we’d had a table in the dining area of smallish rooms (which we liked better.) Food was amazing and inspired. They were willing to put spicier sauce in the side for me which was appreciated! Staff was great. A special set with choices so we chose to get different items to try and all were so good!
