Lovely. The service was wonderful and the food sublime. We were running very late on a busy night and they were incredibly accomodating. The decor is warm, calming and inviting and the dishes were truly fresh, tasty and worth the hour drive it took us to get there. Look forward to going again.

For an upscale restaurant, we felt the dining experience was very rushed and very impersonal. The maitre'd is very detached, never checks to see if all is well. The dining experience does not match the reputation. I always thought part of a first class meal was the attentiveness of the staff and the hospitality. Both were lacking.

Loved the new design, but this is a restaurant that was once great and is now just good. The fillet mignon ravioli was hard and greasy, the lobster pasta was good but had way too much basil. This highlight was he dessert a fromage panna cotta with fruit. A bit pricey for just good.
