We were pleased to discover the offering of a tasting menu. Chef Michael’s creativity and talent was evident in each dish. His passion was exemplified by his presentation and education about each dish. I also enjoyed the adventure of the mystery wine challenge. Although I did not guess correctly (yet!) I have been inspired to learn more about this wine, that I loved, by the way, and would likely have never tried.

It was not crowded on a Saturday night which made me concerned. The food was fine. The service was very good. They were attentive to my food allergy. I had two cosmos and I will say they were pretty weak.
