Beautiful restaurant with an interesting history. Excellent menu and the food was fantastic! Had the 1/2 salad and cup of soup lunch. Choose the black bean soup served over rice. Delicious! After we ate we asked about the restaurant history and the assistant manager gave us a wonderful tour. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Service was great! Smash burgers were on the dry side. Wish they used meat with more fat content. If you are in to dry smash burgers you will love them. Just not my preference. Get the ranch wedges!

A fantastic dining experience for upscale, tablecloth service. Everything is made in house and you can tell the difference in the quality of food. Great choices of starters, soups and salads, seafood and prime cuts of meat. Dessert is amazing and a good choice of dessert beverages too accompany the sweets.
