The new butternut squash ravioli was amazing. Great balance of sweet squash and nutty browned butter sauce. The main was an entrecôte, cooked to a perfect medium-rare, topped with a butter aux herbes which melted on the steak. The black pepper sauce was amazing as well. Wonderful experience.

Best food experience! We had the bison tartar and the scallops for a starter. Absolutely superb!! Then my husband had the surf and turf which he said was the best steak he’s had. I had the mushroom gnocchi and it was by far one of the best dishes I’ve ever tasted. We will be back.!!
