Booked this for my wife and some visiting friends for Christmas Eve dinner, and it was a fantastic experience. Our friends are all international, spending their first Christmas in the States away from their families and thought it was fun to go out to eat. They really enjoyed the entire experience. Great service and food, and we really loved the lights throughout the restaurant. Thanks for making our holiday special!

Wonderful experience. Our first time visiting this restaurant. Service was excellent. Bison meatballs and baked clams as appetizers were delicious. Rib eye steak and short rib ragu was mouthwatering and cooked to perfection. Desserts were excellent as well. One suggestion - our waitress saw me using my phone for light. She brought me a little lamp. It was wonderful and suggest having at all tables since it was a little dark in some areas of the restaurant. I shared it with the couple at the next table so they could see their dessert. lol! Ambiance is definitely warm and cozy feeling. Good for date nights. But a little loud.
