    My friends dinner was was improperly cooked, not as ORDERED! It took forever to replace her dish, & by the time it arrived my husband & I had FINISHED our dishes!!! She had totally lost her appetite. My husband disliked his “ravioli” with scallops & seared tuna. The French fries & potaoes with Gruyère cheese was delicious, as was the Burrata & Beets.

    Disappointing. Based on the 4 1/2 stars I was expecting a great restaurant. The service was awful….and the food was so expensive! Wow! I ordered a white fish chowder which was very tasty but it didn’t even come with bread on the side. You have to buy the bread. I can’t recommend.
