A long time favorite that never disappoints! I have loved this neighborhood gem for years, and don't get back to it as much as I did when I could walk there. But whenever we get back, it's just wonderful. Still beautifully decorated, the staff is friendly and attentive, the food is delicious, and we could actually have a conversation without talking loudly. The oysters were like butter, the lobster bisque was flavorful and creamy, and the entrees were all tasty and plentiful. What a special Valentine's Day for our family - thank you!
