    We had the beautiful corner banquet last night for my husband's birthday, it is truly the best seat in the house. The jazz band above on the balcony was fabulous. There were four of us and I was excited to introduce them to this lovely spot. The service is perfect and so welcoming. The steaks are delicious and the little potato crispy "balls" are yummy. Extensive wine list-note that the first part of the wine book has the "Collection", the last two pages have wines by the glass, and just before the last two pages are the "normal" bottles of wine! The sommelier was happy to explain this to me as I searched for a favorite Rhone wine. This is a "special occasion" spot, but you could visit and experience the fun just by being in the lively bar and lounge area.

    This is a favorite for me to bring clients for lunch. Having dinner here was a first. Everyone was wonderful. Met Tony the Manager who personally brought bread to the table when he noticed we didn't have any. Cocktails were spot on. Even the table busser was all smiles and attentive to the whole room. I highly recommend for business lunches and dinners.
