    Truly wonderful experience. Jazz band started as we sat down and played at just the right volume to have a conversation and jiggle to the tunes. We were very close to the stage and the waiter was attentive and good humoured. Food was delicious and cocktails were very satisfying. Will be back!

    Loved loved the food. Ambiance, drinks, were all very nice, as expected, but everything that came to the table was delicious. I really appreciate the grasp Chef Tatiana has on her food. High-quality, unique, "comfort food" filling. We enjoyed filling our bellies, and will definitely be back!

    Great seaport restaurant attached to a local hotel. Beautifully decorated for the holidays. Lively bar area and comfortable seating. Food was reasonably priced, and service was very attentive. Great choice for a cold winter's dinner in the city. Also, great people-watching with parties in festive attire streaming through the lobby.
