    We had an amazing experience there. Our server was incredible, the ambience was great. The drinks were great!!! My lobster bisque was lukewarm. And while the beef tenderloin was delicious, it was extremely rare. We like rare to medium rare steaks, but this was rare. Overhaul, a great experience and we will definitely be back.

    We had friends in from out of town for holiday lunch. Were able to arrange with chef to serve the turtle soup and duck & boursin crepes which we paired with the crabcakes to have our own Petite Réveillon lunch! Thank you, chef! A gorgeous holiday celebration!!!

    Honestly, the service could not have been better. We had three people taking care of us and they were spectacular. I couldn’t remember the name is the wine I ordered but the drink waiter remembered immediately without even looking. They were great. The only complaint I have was the Fish Katie. My girlfriend ordered it and said it didn’t taste right so I tried it. The only way I can describe it is that it tasted “dirty”. Maybe the fish wasn’t fresh, or was just a bad piece, I don’t know, but it tasted awful. She was already full by that point of the dinner so she didn’t want to say anything, but I figured I would mention it now. Other than that, the dinner was perfect and we will certainly be back!
