    We dined here for Xmas Eve and it’s was the perfect spot. The environment is cozy and quiet so you can have a conversation with your whole table. The food was excellent and cooked perfectly. I recommend the salmon and steaks. We were also excited to see some traditional dishes from past Xmas eves with our grandma under the special Xmas Eve selections. My only constructive feedback was the courses were served too close together but it was a busy night for them.

    We had been away too long. This superb dinner experience makes us plan to return more often. Angie, our server, was outstanding. My martini was quickly served. Soon, my appetizer, the escargot, arrived. We both enjoy dipping the French bread slices in the butter and garlic with the snails. Herself had the fruits de mer entree which she pronounced most tasty. My lamb's shank was perfectly prepared and delicious. This is my favorite entree there, but tonight was even better than usual. We topped it all off with the chocolate mousse dessert. While all this was not cheap, it was worth every cent. Angie earned a nice tip. We will return soon.

    Food is thoughtfully prepared and presented using high quality ingredients. Everyone in our group of four enjoyed their entrees, commenting that the venison and scallop dishes were remarkable. Dessert of vanilla custard tart and housemade cranberry ice cream was a lovely close to the meal. Cocktails were good but not great, if there was any low point to the meal. Overall, a great experience, but I question the value for the price. Can an equal or better experience be had for less? Yes.
