We (family of 4 adults) ate brunch here the midmorning after Christmas and really enjoyed our meal. The food was very good, the service was attentive and courteous and the ambiance excellent. We lingered over our meal for almost 2 hours and felt the staff didn’t try to rush us out. Highly recommended.

Service was slow (dinner took 3 hours), but the waitstaff was pleasant and helpful. We were not in a hurry, so the leisurely pace was ok. We sat right in front of the hostess stand, and she seemed angry, and we felt like she was glaring at us all night. It may be that she was angry about the slow service, but we felt her wrath. The food and wine was very good, and the waitstaff was friendly and capable. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed our dinner very much except for the disapproving hostess.

The warm, welcoming ambience, beautifully prepared dishes, and expert service were fantastic! We also appreciated the lovely personal touches, including a complimentary birthday treat (presented on a bouquet) and a personalized birthday card signed by the staff. We can't wait to go back!
