    Enjoyed a nice Sunday evening dinner here on the patio. Patio was warm and inviting. Service was excellent. Wine recommendation was very good. There were three Pinot Noirs offered in virtually the same price range, $75 to $80. Seemed like some more variety would have been good. Appetizers were imaginative (duck rolls) and tasty. I ordered Prime Steak Salad, came with three nice dressings. Steak was perfectly cooked and greens were fresh. My friend had the lasagna, which was very good. Warm churros and ice cream for dessert. Nice finish to the dinner. Very nice experience. Wonder why there weren't more diners? We virtually had the place to ourselves for three hours.

    The food was delicious as always, especially the famous sundried tomato soup. It was my first time trying the honey cilantro chicken sandwich on a baguette and I loved it! My husband’s burger was prepared medium rare, as he likes it and the fries were awesome. Our server , Ingrid, was attentive and friendly and made our experience all the more memorable.
