The food was excellent. Everyone really enjoyed all the dishes shared. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. My only problem with the restaurant was the 20% service charge automatically added. When you buy a bottle of wine at $50 or $300, the service required to serve the...Read More

Great food! We ordered an appetizer, second course, and dessert. I highly recommend the mushroom ragu and the chocolate/lemon cake dessert. Both were incredible. Overall, the restaurant was not very busy, which made for a bit of a strange atmosphere, but led to great service.
