    Great restaurant that never fails. They updated their menu two weeks ago and while we missed the old favorites, the new menu is probably of wider appeal. I will say that the fajitas were just a bit too spicy, especially for an older person. The chips and salsa and guacamole are the best in town!!!

    I was so impressed with the service. We never waited for anything. I was cold, but due to Christmas decorations they could not use the heaters- without me asking they brought out a hot water bottle to help keep my legs warm. So nice. I had the pasta with the Langoustine - it was tasty. But the best part of our meal was the deconstructed tiramisu- it was delicious!! I want to go back just to get dessert!! I would definitely recommend eating here. Reservations are a must.
