A friend and I went for wine and appetizers and we were not disappointed. Service was attentive. The charcuterie board was a bit on the small size. But was very tasty. The stuffed mushrooms and the steak bites were to light.

Service and the cheese fondue were really good. We did not care for the sides that came with the lamb chop, especially the hummus infused couscous. The consistency was like eating Play-Doh. The mussels also left a bit to be desired. Would not suggest ordering either. Overall an ok experience but for the price and other options on 17th they need to up their game.
