Food was excellent, we arrived early for our reservation and the restaurant was almost empty. It felt like we had to the whole place to ourselves. Very beautiful plants and decor

We were very pleased with the delicious meal we made from several small plates/appetizers, which were all perfectly prepared and nicely presented. Among the stars were the meatballs, macaroni and cheese and Brussels sprouts. But do not leave without trying the Cracked Potatoes, little chunks that are pillowy soft on the inside and crispy on the outside, with something that added an addictive umami kick. We also found cocktails and wine that perfectly complemented our diverse assortment of dishes.

Excellent professional staff. Food presentation and preparation were outstanding. The tuna tartare should not be missed. It was outstanding. Corkage $35, that’s becoming standard, still Think it is too high. Valet parking $20 for first two hours then it flips up to $30. Pricey if you are going to the theatre
