    Great dinner out - food was great and atmosphere was great. Vintana went out of the way to setup our table nice (rose petals) and left a signed card for our anniversary.

    Beautiful restaurant inside. I rated three stars for food only because there were scant few vegetarian and vegan items. Those were basically side orders. There is not one salad available as an option. The other four people in our party that ordered meat meals really enjoyed their food. I also ranked 4 for noise because the only table available was outside, which is next to another restaurant that had their own music playing. I think if you requested a table inside, it would be perfect. I ordered a martini and it was average And very small. We ordered the s’mores for dessert (And there is actually a vegan option with a vegan marshmallow) But they didn’t really Taste like s’mores. The presentation was lovely though, although not real effective grilling your own marshmallow over tiny coals. I would definitely go back if the Restaurant would provide some actual vegan meals.

    Wanted a quiet area where we three friends could chat and eat. A corner booth was perfect. Our server Ingrid was personable and professional. Our entrees were delicious and arrived quickly. Loved my Shrimp & Crab Louie salad! Impressed by the ambiance of the dining room. The men's restroom was immaculate.
