    The restaurant ambiance is very lovely. We sat in the “library “ which is somewhat quieter albeit out of the mainstream and therefore service was good but not outstanding. My husband and I ordered the Dover sole. This was NOT the first time eating this fish. Ours was much different than we’ve ever had before. It was meatier and chewier than most Dover sole we’ve had, which is typically light and less dense. I was surprised by the consistency. It tasted great but just want the Dover sole we are used to?. The shrimp dish was quite good. The tiramisu delicious. We had a very nice experience.

    Delicious food options (went for brunch, mostly ordered from the lunch menu). The steak bites were the table favorite, with Brussels sprouts as runner up. For a birthday, it was the perfect atmosphere. Will definitely be back.

    Friend’s birthday celebration pre- show at Broward Center for the Performing Arts Server was prompt and knowledgeable. Our food selections ranged from appetizers and salad to pasta bolognese and pork chop entrees. The atmosphere was warm and festive - l The restaurant is located a short walk from the Broward Center along the waterfront and is a great complement to an enjoyable evening with friends
