    Wow! I walked past this resto so many times, and, from the outside, it looked average. However, as soon as you walk in the front door, you know that you are some place special. The ambience is great, but, more importantly, the food was exquisite. Yes, it was expensive, but the experience was worth every penny. To start, we ordered rolls with chive butter, and, for an entrée, had pumpkin ravioli with walnuts, apples, onions, and ricotta cheese--yum! The food was so good that we decided to order dessert, an apple tartan which was equally delicious. On top of that, our server was excellent, very helpful, and friendly. You have to try this place at least once!

    Seafood forward menu but plenty of other meats and veggies to round out the meal. I found it easy to find gluten free options for everything but dessert. My husband enjoyed his birthday meal. Almost forgot to mention the drinks are amazing, boozy and flavorful, a rare occurrence.
