    Lovely meal. Parking wasn’t easy but just how it is. Nice service but loud around us. We will share a caesar salad next time as it’s huge. Veal was excellent. Brought half home. Great wines and nice approach to all. Thanks for our Christmas meal.

    The atmosphere is delightful. It’s a mix of old world marble museum with modern comforts and flair. The staff is knowledgeable without being pretentious. Hanan was our server, and she was the perfect mix of knowledgeable, sought help when needed (wine pairings), and the right amount of attentive without hovering. The food was an amazing experience with every bite, and our wine pairing was perfect. Try the yellowfin tuna tartare with the Chablis, and the risotto with the Paul Jaboulet Aîné Syrah. The nose on the wine was worth every dollar, especially after it had aired out a bit. I wish I could afford to come here every month!
