We had a wonderful meal with the somewhat limited menu. Prices a little high but in keeping with other local higher end restaurants. Would like to see some vegetarian options as a meal and not just sides put together. Maybe a curried lentil dish with rice, or fried tofu with sautéed veggies. Just a thought! It is a bit noisy but not over powered by music. Would definitely go back!

We had dinner here on Christmas Day and everything was wonderful. The hostess and waitress were so nice. They even offered us a complimentary drink and appetizer since we had to wait a little while for our table. Customer service was phenomenal!!
