    Restaurant was beautiful. Very quaint-we liked the small private alcoves for intimate dinners, even though we were six and didn't experience it. The food and service were great!

    We were a party of four for lunch and we enjoyed the crab cakes. They were described as Maryland style filled with lump crabmeat and we were not disappointed. We will definitely go back and try the dinner menu.

    Requested and reserved an alcove table to celebrate my 45 wedding anniversary. When we arrived we were seated in the general dining room.. Have been going to this restaurant for many years for our wedding anniversary and this is the first time we had this unfortunate experience. The manager explained that the prior reservee had delayed their arrival and so we were pushed to a duece table in the main dining room. While the food and service were excellent the ambiance and intimacy was completely lacking. We had a birthday gathering to our left and a large 12 person table behind us. Absolutely nothing special; a noisy and chaotic environment to say the least. I could have gone to a mainstream chain restaurant and spent half the price. Extremely disappointed.

    After waiting 90 minutes for a $49 dinner that was missing one main main main ingredient called Shrimp. I have to tell you I was a little disappointed and the fact that nobody really came over to apologize or do anything about. It was a little disheartening.

    Service was slow, food portions small and expensive. My "Perfect Manhattan" didn't measure up.

    Beautiful restaurant, lovely grounds. The service was excellent and our servers were so accommodating and sensitive to our requests. The rack of lamb and steak were perfectly made, desserts delicious. We had the passion fruit and berries. We found the noise level from the music too much and the maitre D was so accommodating and lowered the volume for us. Our night was perfect.

    I specifically said it was my husbands 70th birthday. We ordered dessert , not even a candle . Our waitress was wonderful. I attribute this to lack of attention from management . Ps I am there at least twice a month for happy hour with friends. I am very disappointed as this was a very special occasion.

    There was NOTHING we didn’t enjoy at this restaurant - everything was perfect. From the decor and ambience to the service to the food which was absolutely AMAZING! It was our first time here but we will definitely be back again soon. We ordered a lot of the specials and they were all delicious, especially the seared tuna appetizer and the halibut entree with risotto.
