    Such a comfortable atmosphere with the fireplace burning & the scent of the Woodfire grill. Attentive service Poached pear salad good but VERY skimpy on the pears. Ask for dressing on the side~ Overall excellent experience ~thank you😊

    Continues to be a favorite choice when downtown. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered and the service was excellent, as always. Had tickets to the Ordway and they were very attentive to our timeline. Love that we can make a reservation on Open Table.

    Here’s a place where friends can gather and actually have a conversation in a cozy and warm atmosphere. Love those booths and the nice decor that even extends into the bathroom….with fresh roses! Didn’t have to use my ear plugs to tune out thumping music, just really enjoyed my company and the delicious food. Thoughtful menu with options for everyone. The service was excellent. Highly recommend this restaurant. We will be back for sure.

    Appear to be a fairly slow night with only a few tables occupied. However, the only 2 servers working had a difficult time keeping up. This might account for lack of engagement on their part. Fortunately, kitchen was well staffed. Pasta entrée and filet entrée arrived piping hot. Well prepared and flavorful. Their traditional warm pita bread unfortunately had been replaced with cold, flavorless dinner rolls.
