Our meal from specialty drinks, appetizers, main course to dessert was excellent. Our waitress was delightful & was attentive to explaining each item on the menu. The bartender explained each ingredient in our drinks. Kudos to the chef for his talent in the kitchen.

Busy restaurants tell you something. They usually tell you who dines out on a Saturday but also why. The why? Because the food & service are excellent. Oysters were impeccable. Several wines on the list represented a well curated variety that suited the seasonal menu. Osso Bucco & Halibut were fresh & superb. Our server Was attentive, eager to suggest items & even helped us taste a sublime Syrah. An amazing evening. Merci!

Portions are too small. Waiters are attentive & aim to please, but on this night, the food did not impress us.

Had a wonderful experience here with my husband on our 2-year anniversary! Service was impeccable - seamless, attentive & thoughtful. The food was delicious - oysters were a highlight as well as the gravlax. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting & looking for a nice meal!

Beyond expectations. We have eaten all over the world & this restaurant is equal to the finest. Great staff, warm welcome & greatly attentive. Melanie "rocks". No rush, nothing too trivial to ask of the staff. Wish they were open daily for all meals.
It is a must.

Great food, fun ambiance, wonderful wine list (we went by the glass) & attentive service that was accommodating for our 7 & 10 year olds. Memorable!
