Just dined here last evening with our client from Germany and his local friend. Had asked for a table with a fabulous view (so we could "show off" a little for our guests). They delivered!! Perfect-O!! The food was wonderful! You must try that spectacular bone-in veal chop!! We all enjoyed our meals to the fullest. Hope to go back again sometime soon!! NOTE: My husband and I have been going to this establishment since it was known as "The Summit" (around 1979). It was great even at that time. And, it has only improved since then. Highly recommend it!

The food and service were good but the food came out very fast and in no particular order; it was not properly coursed for us. Half the food came out before our bottle of wine was opened for us (but the wine list was very good!). The hot dish came out before several cold ones and we had to eat it before we were ready to avoid it getting cold. Otherwise a good experience but needs to finesse the serving for such a nice restaurant/meal.
