    Wonderful dinner! Best Filet in past year! Special Valentine menu. Strawberry salad-delightful. Surprise of the night was the beignets! Fabulous, untraditional with a pitcher of hot caramel sauce to pour over them. Renee and Rose made sure it was a “lovely “ ❤️ evening!

    We had not eaten here in a few years and it was exactly as wonderful as we remember it being. Food is amazing, setting is quaint and intimate and service is amazing. Everyone here is just spectacular. So glad we spent our early Valentine's dinner here.

    We came during lunch and the place was empty. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and seated right on time. The ambiance was sort of late 19th century but very cool and unique. The service was good and the food was tasty too. I’d return again when in the area for lunch or dinner. Thank you.

    We decided on lunch during Restaurant Week. The three-course meal was well planned and provided an opportunity to sample their menu items. The salmon and chicken crepes were delicious. Our server was wonderful. She was informative and attentive. We sat near the window and enjoyed the beautiful view.
