    The updated decor is beautiful, perfectly complementing the building's charm while paying homage to the former York Street Cafe. It's a fresh, modern space with a nostalgic touch. Our server was exceptional, and the highlight of the New York Strip. It was perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and of the highest quality. The owners, Richard and Jennifer McCollum, were warm and welcoming, and it’s clear they’ve created a dining experience that’s well worth the visit.

    We enjoyed our 8oz prime filet mignon and catch of the day - mahi mahi. Both were perfectly prepared. Beef was well seasoned and correct temperature. It sat in small pool of mashed potatoes-another spoonful of potatoes would have been nice. Mahi was a generous portion and sat on top of “dirty orzo “ with small bits of spicy sausage. Atmosphere is good, but noise level at half capacity was uncomfortable. Service was very attentive (Belle) We did not have dessert, but they have a nice selection of in house cakes. Small wine selection. We had a nice Pinot noir from willamette valley. The chef and his wife own the business.

    Our group of four enjoyed cocktails and wine along with the lobster and smoked salmon appetizers. The entrees we had were the special, which was a citrus perch and incredible! The steak and double pork chop. We shared the carrot cake and key lime pie for dessert. Everything was delicious. The restaurant is fresh and beautiful. Look forward to the patio opening.
