    From the moment we walked in, the warm, intimate ambiance set the perfect tone for our Valentine’s Day dinner. The restaurant had a carefully curated menu, and every dish we tried was packed with flavor. One standout dish was the grilled artichoke—it had a bold, smoky flavor that was truly enjoyable. However, the texture was a bit too tough, making it difficult to chew and swallow, almost like chewing on gum. It was the only slight drawback in an otherwise exceptional meal. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was simply enchanting. Soft lighting, cozy seating, and an inviting energy made the evening feel special. It wasn’t just a meal; it was an experience one that made our Valentine’s Day truly unforgettable.

    The food was incredible. I usually hesitate to get surf and turf because I am usually disappointed. The steak AND the lobster were excellent. Service and ambience were amazing for a spectacular valentines dinner. The place was packed but not too noisy and didn’t slow our service down.
