This was such an unexpected win for us. We usually have to travel to Pike and Rose for fine dining options near us. The restaurant is beautiful and the service was amazing. Family-friendly.

As always the wait staff and the food were excellent. However, they were out of most beers listed. This was on a Saturday night. Some of us had already planned our meals around their offerings.

The food here is fabulous across the board. Our party of two made a right-sized meal by sharing several small plates, which was a great value. The service is attentive--maybe a little too much so, as they asked us twice if we wanted dessert while we were still working on our main dishes. The restaurant started out quiet at 6:30pm, but by about 7pm the music got cranked up and it was harder to have a conversation.

Tastes like food from a high end DC restaurant in a casual, warm, slightly shabby space. Honestly, really enjoyed our night and loved the food. Service was too slow (but work hard) and we definitely enjoyed our night.

everything was fine except for the screaming baby. Why would a parent take a baby to an upscale restaurant
