    Had a lovely birthday meal with my husband and parents - the food was delicious and the service absolutely on point, caring, friendly and attentive. The Christmas decor is excellently executed - it could so easily be OTT and too much and yet it is exactly enough to be a lot and yet very tasteful and classy - it has all of the magical and festive feel the Christmas spirit should give

    Oh my gosh! What a magical place to visit at Christmas time! The ambience is off the chart! The decor, the staff, the food…absolutely everything was just amazing. I can’t wait to come back for Sunday brunch! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a fun night with a great historical building and fabulous, everything!

    Total experience was wonderful. 10/10 recommend, especially this time of year. Despite being seated in the bar area, we were still able to converse with ease. Ambience was perfect for an anniversary celebration. Servers were attentive and helpful with suggestions since it was our first visit. We will definitely be back!

    It took the server over 15 minutes to come to the table. Server told us she was exhausted didn’t know what day it was. Ordered 2 drinks and $40 cheese meat tray. Before we received our appetizer, we were told we are on a time limit. Must spend $60. We had already spent $80 at this point. Made us feel very rushed and uncomfortable. We hurried to eat and left. We were going to order more food. Very sad and overrated for Christmas.
