    My entrée was absolutely superb - top marks! My son’s, whose 40th birthday we were celebrating, was not. While we were there, he echoed my praise, BUT, after we left, he said that his salmon was overcooked and dry. I wish he had said something while we were there, but he did not want to spoil the mood! Children!!!

    Wonderful, small and personable neighborhood "fancy" place for a special meal. Best when having the time to appreciate reallly good food with complex flavors, versus chowing down when hungry. We'll be back.

    I appreciated the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. The patio area is heated and quiet enough for conversation. Each course was delicious.

    We love Juanita and Maude! From Nick who is so friendly and accommodating , also the rest of the staff . The menu changes daily. All of the food is very fresh and seasonal! We are never disappointed! It is a rather small place and is a bit noisy . We personally don’t mind! The outdoor patio has a great feel! Oh the cocktails are great too! Definitely recommend a reservation!
