    Thought it would be better but enjoyed the experience generally but food was extremely overworked and super salty. Brussel sprouts were tasty. Wouldn’t have the curtains as it kept all the noise on our smaller side and might have been better with such a large space to let things flow all over the space. Appreciated our waiter.

    We ALWAYS love our dinners here. They’ve changed the format to a smaller, shared plates menu but still had a selection with variety and creativity. Favorites were the mushroom & leeks with hazelnuts and brown butter, steak diane, and magically textured fries. Notably, it’s one of the few places in the city (and other cities for that matter) where I can always find a delicious gluten free/dairy free dessert option on the menu!
