Went here for our wedding anniversary and had a great time. Gorgeously designed interior, food tasted great, service was the correct amount of attentive and polite. Only down side is depending on your budget, some of the drink prices are a bit steep even on the high end. Advertising 3oz pours for spirits helps justify it a little, but $22 for Buffalo Trace is not ideal. Wondering if the bar manager doesn’t get along with the rep or something haha.

Just meh. Chicken parm was pounded thin as paper, edges were burned. Pasta was herbed and starchy and stuck together. It should have been tossed with the tomato sauce which was quite good. Charred Brussels tasted burned. Not charred. Brick chicken was good but sauce was cloying. A simple herb sauce would have done wonders. Big disappointment

A very nice lunch! Everything we had was very good-French onion soup, calamari, butter leaf salad with grilled shrimp. Hosts/hostesses and our server were very welcoming-the birthday dessert was very much appreciated!
