The restaurant was decorated beautifully for the holidays. The waitress was attentive and helpful. Nice selection on the menu but pretty pricey. Food was very good and nice size portions. We were able to sit and enjoy our friends without feeling rushed.

We had the bacon and octopus appetizer and they were fabulous. The Caesar salad with salmon was ok, did not have a lot of flavor. The steak and lobster tail was very good as well as the table side bananas foster.
