Steve X We had dinner here on a Wednesday night in mid December. The place was packed. And for good reason—this is a first rate fine dining restaurant with excellent food, superb service and an elegant atmosphere.
The noise level wasn’t bad in the main dining area—except for the three guys next to us, so we got a table in the bar area, which was quiet even though it was packed also. The hostess said the bar area was always quieter than the main dining area.
The menu and wine list is extensive. Our server Alex suggested a nice Sauvignon blanc that was wonderful. He was very friendly, super accommodating of food allergies and preferences, and very attentive.
The meatball appetizer in Marinara sauce had two of the largest meatballs we’ve seen in an appetizer and was delicious. We enjoyed it together with complimentary warm French bread. The pan seared halibut for dinner was expertly prepared and a large portion. The chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream and the raspberry sorbet were terrific desserts. The espresso was good as was the mint tea.
Even though the restaurant was packed we were waited on promptly, our orders were not delayed and were spaced apart perfectly, and the food was hot and nicely served.
Portions are generous, and while this restaurant is not inexpensive, it was worth the money for a wonderful dining experience. We definitely will return the next time we vacation in the area and definitely recommend this restaurant for a terrific fine dining experience.
