    I dont go to fancy restaurants as often as I should. It makes me nervous but it was for me and my wife’s Valentines dinner date I had planned a month in advance. We went there and everything was perfect. The servers were kind and helped us with what we needed. It was definitely a memory that will last a lifetime that I am thankful for. The food was all cooked perfectly and I couldnt find anything to complain about even if I tried.

    La Voile is always a delight but yesterday they went above and beyond. They handed out fresh roses as we arrived and took Polaroid photos tableside to commemorate the day. The Valentines Menu was sublime only matched by the superb service.

    First visit to Pammy's to celebrate a b-day. Service was wonderful, thoughtful tips, frequent check ins, great energy. There were a few menu items that we needed to clarify before ordering as we were unfamiliar with items...but all part of the fun. The food was outstanding, I tried the lobster with squid ink gnocchi ...exceptional! The restaurant is kind of cozy...small floor plan with a communal center table. It all works, but if you have a larger group..book ahead to get one of the separate side tables.
