Music was 11/10, creating a perfect atmosphere. The food was all divine done in particular the mussels a la crème… they were the best mussels I’ve ever had in my life and I do not say that lightly as I try mussels at every restaurant I’ve ever been to. The hugel reisling was delightful when paired with the duck confit and service was excellent. Our waiter was friendly with a great sense of humor. Could not have asked for a better experience, but I do have one question… I must know what is your playlist????

My best friend was visiting from out of town and we were celebrating her birthday along with the holidays. When we arrived we were asked if we preferred the quieter area of the restaurant, and we proceeded to have a wonderful evening catching up , and thouroughly enjoying the delicious tasting menu. The lamb chops were perfection! Service throughout was professional and friendly, our water glasses filled all evening. The chairs were very comfortable and the ambience in our corner perfect for conversation. Couldn’t ask for more.
