    food was excellent. I rarely finish my prime rib at other restaurants but last night I ate every bite and the sides too. service was above excellent. our server was personable and quick to replenish drinks and checked on us throughout the meal. just a great meal although the only criticism I have is the price. while expensive it ultimately was worth the cost.

    Truly a gem of Tucson. This was our first visit, so we didn't know what to expect. Based on meals at other highly regarded Tucson restaurants I didn't expect much, to be honest. Frankly, we were blown away. Everything we ordered was delicious, and a few items were truly something else. We ordered the charred broccoli expecting a fairly straightforward, and basic, starter. What we got was a dish of such complexity that we were taken aback. Another highlight was the rosemary olive oil cake. Usually olive oil cake is one of those hip menu items that never lives up to the hype. This cake was the exception. It was so moist and flavorful. When I took a bite with the cake, cream, and dark maraschino cherries (Luxardo?), it was a mouthful of heaven. We seriously considered extending our stay in Tucson one more day simply to return for dinner tomorrow. Alas, it was unrealistic. But we do plan on stopping in the next time we're in town.

    First time at this restaurant. Escargot and artichoke appetizer was wonderful. My Caesar salad was excellent. Entrees were also great. I have a lactose issue so the menu was difficult, but our server was so helpful. Back and forth to the kitchen trying to find something that would work. She was truly amazing. Would highly recommend.

    excellent prefix dinner choices- all 3 of us had the sea bass, one had issues 24 hours after with the fish, he told me at home it had a smell to it when served; this is our go-to -place for special events-sadly the table next to us had 6 very loud customers, they were definitely not respectful of other customers, most of them traveled from out of state and had no clue re: fine dining courtesies to close neighbors, they made the bistro attendees look way ore respectful of other customers- overall, was a nice place for a dinner, Mo
