    Our food was fantastic, start to finish. The pacing was perfect. Our server was so friendly and attentive. The low to reasonably moderate noise level made for easy conversation. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

    Went for an early Valentine's Day dinner and everything was just perfect. Lovely waitress, two excellent appetizers we shared (pear salad and tuna tartare) and both excellent dinners (black sea bass from the specials menu and paella). Molten chocolate beignets for dessert with cappuccinos finished of a wonderful evening. OOH...and we shared a bottle of champagne from the February discount bottle menu...a delightful surprise!

    We thoroughly enjoyed both chicken entrées. Who knew they could be so different and yet both extremely delicious. The Peruvian chicken and the chicken confit. The shrimp was the best as an appetizer. Absolutely perfectly cooked and delicious. Would love to see the chicken confit join the menu, not just a chef special it was that good!
