Just when I thought they couldn’t get any better, they changed their recipe for mussels to a creamy leek sauce. Wow! This is a restaurant where I can bring my 6 year old nephew and my 101 year old mother and every one finds a wonderful meal. My favorite restaurant ❤️

Christmas Eve dinner. Festive, lively atmosphere without being too loud for easy conversation. Service was excellent, beginning with the accommodation of a late addition guest. Staff was there for every need and question yet never made us feel rushed—even though our meal went past closing. I expected great food and was not disappointed. Oysters were particularly good and French-pressed coffee always adds a great finishing touch. My teenagers had a great time and have a new appreciation for real food. Highly recommend.
