    I would suggest the host be a little more welcoming when patrons arrive but other than that my entire experience was wonderful. Our waiter was fantastic and provided plenty of suggestions. We sampled a variety of appetizers from the lamb ragu hummus and vegetable crudite to the cheese rolls which were outstanding. The pairing of the cheese and apricot jam was perfection. For our entrees we went with the mixed grill and the filet mignon with a side of Brussels sprouts so that we could sample a little of everything from the chicken, lamb to the beef and grilled veggies. Everything was chefs kiss and I can’t wait to return.
