It was really good. The lamb chop fondue is amazing and I highly recommend them. I had the filet and lobster tail it was awesome. The only issue was the fondue was weird, flavor wasn’t bad but the texture was off. I had the Mac and cheese and they don’t do a lobster Mac but I asked for it and they made it. So I appreciated that. I have been here many times and I will continue to return.

It was our second visit and it was just as wonderful. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The ambience takes you back in time with their touch of old school class. The barware they’ve chosen, white tablecloths, dark walls. This is not a place where you are competing with the noise of an open kitchen and music that is too loud. Just the right amount of sound coming from conversation and eating utensils hitting the plate. Prices are right and the food is excellent. It’s not a big menu but we hope to try everything at some point!

Service and food were excellent. Also good with allergies (gluten). Beautiful presentation of food. The only challenge is that when full, it’s noisy.
