    Only negative is the noise level. Staff is friendly, accommodating. Food was delicious (steak). Love the ambience (except for the high noise level).

    We sat for dinner a 8:00pm on a cold winter night, and while the service was cordial, the food was good and the room is quite beautiful, we were not offered coffee or dessert, and received not so subtle hints that they wanted us to leave. That doesn’t seem appropriate for a restaurant that charges the prices they do.
