Quiet night. Veal Wellington 86’d when we arrived. Service excellent. Food delicious. Martini with blue cheese olives top of the line. This place never disappoints.

WOW! Loved the house made giant asparagus tortellinis with mushrooms & a beautiful white sauce. It was a special that night and I hope they have it again. I could eat that everyday. My guest had a veal dish that he was equally impressed with. I also had oysters on the half shell from ME & MA. Both very different. They managed to serve them with the oyster liquor and the best Mignotte I’ve ever tasted. I usually enjoy oysters with just a squeeze of lemon, but the mignotte was too good to pass up. Our server Skylar had great rhythm in his service and was great.

It was hard to find a lunch spot Christmas Eve. They provided exceptional food and service. It was a tad loud but understandable given how busy they were.
