A very nice bottle of Fume Blanc from the great wine list to start. My wife had a delicious Pistachio Cream Chicken and my daughter and I had perfectly cooked Ribeye Steaks. My wife loved their coffee which they had with their Dobos Torte for dessert. Service was friendly and efficient from Dawson. We all took home leftover boxes which will make for great lunches this weekend. A fine family dinner out!

Extremely busy. Waited 10 minutes even with a reservation. Service was slow - just a few wait staff and every single table was occupied. Food was good - not the best we have had there. Obviously loud given it was busy.
