Appetizers served at different time. Last appetizer arriving after all other guests had finished theirs. Unclear explanation on liquor availability. Instead of explaining license status, response was “not available”. We finally figured it out. Warm wine and inadequate cooling adjustment. Inaccurate bill. Paper bill $215. Portable device bill $322 Neither was correct. $277 was correct bill after we pointed out that $215 bill was missing 1 bottle of wine and something else. Food was very good but well overshadowed by service issues. First time customers. Not sure we will return or recommend.

Delicious food and great service! I come here often because parking is usually plentiful in the nearby shopping area and the vibes are good. The servers are always fantastic and friendly.

We arrived at the time of our reservarion and the place was empty. We had to wait around 15 minutes to be seated and 10 minutes more to get the menus and water. After another 20 minutes waiting we decided to leave the place.

We did the HRW menu. Everything was delicious. The two standout dishes for me were the campechana and the Tuscan salmon. The atmosphere reminds you of a European cafe. Perfect place for a couples dinner.
