Fabulous meal in a lovely, comfortable setting. Food was outstanding—the potato/parsnip soup was creamy and delicious. The potato/goat cheese beignets and crab cakes were both fantastic appetizers. Two of us enjoyed the Sunday Coq a vin special. Others enjoyed the tagliatelle and the scallops. We were sad that we were too full for dessert! Excellent, welcoming service. We look forward to our next visit!

Upscale fresh seafood knowledgable chef great staff from front of the house to the back of the house to the bar! Exceptional experience even though we were there on Valentine's Day, which was fully booked. I had house salad and fried oysters and a gin and tonic. Hubs had hamachi, apple salad, and rum and coke. Highly recommended!
