We have been to this restaurant many times. The food is consistently good one of the quieter, restaurants around with real table cloths. Although they serve the food fast. There was absolutely no rush. They have European manners in that they don’t clear plates until everybody’s done. another example of how they don’t rush you.

First time, and will not be the last. The food, drinks, service and ambiance were 10/10. Happened to dine on Wednesday. Who knew it was jazz night! Holiday season decor made it extra special. Great attention to details. Oh, and this is a biggie for me… the restrooms were clean!!
