    Very unassuming looking place with Wonderful food, excellent service, strict attention to allergy concerns, and a quiet environment to just enjoy the food. No ear splitting music or deafening beat. Wonderful preparations. We had pork belly and crab cake as appetizers, roasted duck breast and crispy roasted sea bass with lobster tortellini as entrées, followed by an amazing lemon cream and wild Berry Napoleon. A refreshing sorbet was also served as s palate cleanser between courses. Everything showed a delicate touch of refinement and knowledge or what works.

    Bobby, Bonita, and Christina made my bar reservation for 1 amazing. There was another manager outside of Bonita that checked in on me and gave me recommendations for the next time I go. Overall, I felt special and was well taken care of 💗 the Valentine’s Day menu had some great options that I enjoyed!

    Great place, beautiful bar. Food - very good with reasonable, prices. Great cocktails and nice wines by the glass to compliment the food. Service was very good even as restaurant got more crowded. Nice for pre-theater dining. We will be back
