I want to start with our server Catherine. She was AMAzing. Delightful, knowledgeable and very attentive. Took extra steps to make our experience feel special and custom. The whole staff was the same, starting with the hostess station. I let them know in advance it was a special occasion and they treated us like it was an extra special night AND as they were a part of making the celebration. I never said another word that evening about the event, and everyone seemed to know and pay attention to that detail. The setting, our table and whole ambiance was exactly what I wanted for the night. A kind of sexy sultry vibe to the place. Leather booths and fabulous lighting for a romantic night. Even the entrance with an incredible oversized red door made for a special welcome! It was pouring rain out and we were a few minutes behind and their response was very gracious and put us at ease to just enjoy. The craft cocktails and wine selection were also amazing. Modern, fresh, beautiful and yummy. The meal measured up as well. From oysters to the special dessert. Everything was unique and quality. We went to a concert at Opera House and I left my gloves…they called us and we went back afterwards and stayed for a nightcap. It was a fabulous evening. Thank you so much. We will come back!

The food and service were great. We were seated next to a large party who were rather loud. They were annoying, but their conversions were hysterical. I love that when I put we have a theater performance at xx:xx, it is taken seriously to make sure our meal moves along to be wonderful and relaxing, but still get us out and to our show on time.
