Bar drinks were nice. We had the pastrami Ruben an icon here. The sandwich was good but I wish the pastrami was hotter and layered vs folded over. Dessert is always a treat. We had the carrot cake and New York cheesecake with lots of left overs. Service was excellent.

Wonderful! Had the sea bass— which was a whole small fish with lovely potato’s, asparagus and sauces. Had linguini with seafood. Full of juicy fat prawns, shrimp, scallops, mussels. The sauce was exquisite? Wine flights, yummy bread with dipping oil, salad so delicate, cheesecake for desert. I am in heaven here! Great staff!
