Fantastic restaurant. We went here with one half of the family on Christmas Eve. It was so great that we took the other half here on the day after Christmas. Every dish was fantastic. Service is on point. Get there early and sit at the bar. Great vibe. Upscale, relaxed.

Honestly, I don't know where the negative reviews I read on here came from. My husband and I just ate here this past week and it was every bit as good as it has always been. My standby for an appetizer, the egg-yolk ravioli was just as heavenly as it has always been. My lobster, shrimp and crepe entree was absolutely divine. My husband's veal was delicious! The hostess graciously moved us to a "better table" after we were seated (we didn't even ask) and the ambience was wonderful at both tables. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and funny. It was a wonderful evening and we can't wait to return.
