The restaurant ambiance is very lovely. We sat in the “library “ which is somewhat quieter albeit out of the mainstream and therefore service was good but not outstanding. My husband and I ordered the Dover sole. This was NOT the first time eating this fish. Ours was much different than we’ve ever had before. It was meatier and chewier than most Dover sole we’ve had, which is typically light and less dense. I was surprised by the consistency. It tasted great but just want the Dover sole we are used to?. The shrimp dish was quite good. The tiramisu delicious. We had a very nice experience.
