    Fabulous brunch and very good service! The staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive. Our table had the smoked salmon omelette and bagels and lox. The omelettes were amazing with lots of flaked smoked salmon (just the right amount of smoke and saltiness) and a lovely herbed yogurt. Roasted potatoes were equally amazing. The bagel and lox was very good - served on an everything bagel with beautiful salmon and plenty of lovely cream cheese and capers. We will definitively be back!

    Wonderful experience! The food was amazing. Atmosphere spectacular! Only issue was that we made reservations several weeks in advance as we were coming in to town to celebrate a friend’s bday. When we got there we had to wait 20 mins to be seated after our reservation as several parties were seated before us (not sure their reservation time) and then we were placed at a communal table with other guests although there was an open private table that would have fit our party. Once we got over that the remainder of the service was great. Drinks 10; Chicken Mojo 10; Greens & Mac 10; and please don’t skip the yeast rolls with crab butter - life changing!!

    Arrived from Idaho, Oregon and Bellingham to celebrate a 70th Birthday. Walked right in and sat down for our 5 o’clock reservation for 4. Delicious clam dip and chips starter. Ordered large sea scallops over creamed corn (delicious and just the right amount), seafood salad (also a perfect size, but a tad salty), Muscovy duck and braised short ribs. Both had an alternative sauce because the advertised sauce Dixie Bourguignon wasn’t ready yet and it was an excellent substitution (took some of each home). We received more of the wine we ordered as compensation for the inconvenience and both our server Tea H and the maitred were very apologetic and enjoyable to talk with. Birthday beignets with Bourbon ice cream and sauce (complimentary and plenty for all) and an order of vanilla bean cheese cake we shared also.Thanks for making the celebration so special .I’ve never had a bad time here, totally worth the cost.

    We love it here! The food is always delicious and the service is always very friendly and intuitive. Even when my husband’s fish came out tough (no one could have known that until it was eaten) they were very apologetic, got him another freshly cut piece, and while preparing it got him a cup of the French onion soup. They also went over and beyond and didn’t charge us for his entree, which definitely didn’t need to be done. It was our anniversary (had rose petals on the table with heart confetti & a card…when we arrived) and they also brought us out a decorative plate (that they wrote Happy Anniversary on it) with our favorite dessert on it! This place is awesome! Highly recommend!
