    It was one of the best dinner experiences. My wife and I have ever had. From the service to the quality of the food and the ambience of the restaurant it is in our top five that we’ve ever been to.

    We took two friends with us this time for their first time. Absolutely awesome, as always. We sat at the table right in front of the kitchen, which was great! And not noisy at all, just enjoyed the hustle and bustle of the kitchen. Not to mention the amazing smells. And we could see the different dishes headed out. We had the duck, short ribs, lobster Mac & cheese, and the scallop special. All were perfectly prepared and matched with their sides. But the star of the night was the mushroom appetizer. To die for. Our waiter was fantastic, ugh I forget his name. As always, the staff has the perfect mix of attentive and relaxing service. Never felt rushed. And of course, the cocktails were spot on ;) Worth planning ahead for the reservations! Thanks for a great night out.

    The food was good. I especially loved the appetizer mushroom forests. My entree was good but quantity was limited. My only real complaint is that my food wasn’t hot enough. The service was exceptional!
