Everything on the menu is made from scratch with locally sourced ingredients that make for fresh and flavorful dishes.

    Great experience with a lovely ambiance. The food surpassed out expectations . We started with The provolone fondue and pretzel bread. 5 stars. I had the Korean skirt steak. An abundance of flavors with a slight kick. My husband had the Bolognese. I felt that is was a bit on the sweeter side but my husband said it was perfect. For dessert, we have the Key Lime Crème Brûlée. It was real good but the tart was a bit too much for me to finish.

    The food, service and atmosphere were all wonderful. Stefano was our server and he was amazing! They were able to accommodate a simple cheese pizza for our kids, Stefano provided an exceptional wine pairing recommendation, and overall a great experience. Can’t wait to return.

    Place and ambience is great. Being French in a French restaurant I was expecting the duck to be like ‘at home’ but it wasn’t. It was well overcooked and became hard. Bit of a disappointment. My partner had the Boeuf Bourgignon which was delicious. Also apparently there are the old and the new menu going around with different wine prices. I was charged $75 a bottle of wine that was shown at $58 on my menu. Small thing but makes the overall experience a little annoying.

    The small plates are entirely original, owing more to Asian and other fusion than to Spanish tapas. The cocktails were original and enhanced the meal. Ambience was great
