    Went for Christmas Eve Feast of the Seven Fishes and did the full wine pairing— a splurge after a busy & draining day/week/year. The space was welcoming and festive, the wine pairings were interesting and thoughtful and the hospitality and service were impeccable from the moment we walked in to the moment we left hours later. Mistakes happen - especially on a busy holiday shift - but any minor hiccups were swiftly addressed. We felt treated like royalty but then also like old friends by the end of the meal.

    What do you say when a restaurant treats you like you are their only customer! From the time we walked in, to the special celebration message (happy anniversary) on the table, we were treated with such kindness and attentiveness that it made our celebration extra special. Thank you to the staff and Brian, who took care of us for helping us celebrate 23 years with some holiday flair. Oh - and the food? Simply Mind blowing!
