    Had an early Christmas dinner here and everything was very nice. We sat at the bar. The cheesesteak egg rolls as an appetizer are extremely good. They had a butternut squash disc that was also very flavorful, and some of the best I have had. The Bronzino fish dish was also very good with a hint of fennel and citrus, which was very complementary to the fish . Service was pleasant and efficient , We would definitely go again

    We went for Christmas breakfast. We were seated immediately and the service staff was very attentive to us. We ordered 3 breakfast items, french toast with nutella and bananas which was outstanding as the bread was not very heavy, the frittata which came with a home made engish muffin and the shrimp and grits which the portion size was so large we needed to take it home. All of the food was very decadent and tasty. Looking forward to coming back here again!
