    Good food and service. I didn’t like them adding a 3.5% surcharge to the final bill. The food was expensive enough without that added charge and negatively impacted the overall experience.

    Always a great meal here. Better vibe in the bar than dining room for us. Lobster ravoli is the bomb. Will return over and over.
