Probably the best meal I’ve ever had in Greensboro (and I’ve lived here 48 years)! The brussel sprout salad came with a delightful vinaigrette, followed by an entree of perfectly cooked scallops accompanied by risotto with toasted sunflower seeds and vegetables and two kinds of mushrooms and a perfectly cooked poached egg. The salad and entree were generous portions. The pot de crème was a dish of creamy decadence with chocolate, butterscotch and a lovely piece of toffee. The cocktails aren’t to be missed either. The server was attentive without being overbearing. I could go on and on!

Nice restaurant for lunch. Our server was nice, may have been new but he was attentive to our needs I had the Cobb salad. Generous serving, will mention that lettuce did not seem as fresh as I would prefer, however dressing and arrangement of ingredients was quite tasty. Location and ambience was excellent. I’m up for a return trip!
