    We thoroughly enjoyed all of the food offerings which included the mushroom arancini, side of fries, branzino, and double pork chop. However, even with a reservation we were seated in the first booth, which feels more connected to the waiting area than it does to the full restaurant. Again, the food was exceptional, which is why we went to Alex G’s special restaurant in the first place.

    We were very surprised by the beautiful restaurant. Just a lovely venue. Warm and inviting. One had the steak and the other duck confit. Absolutely delicious. Our service was excellent. Highly recommend and will return.

    Food was good. It seemed a little pre-prepared but still good. Waitress was excellent. Very nice and didn’t rush us at all. Ambiance is great, good scene, and noise level was also at a low which is perfect for conversation. Overall very pleased with experience and definitely recommend. We will be back.

    My husband and I went here for my 40th birthday celebration. We were running slightly behind our 7 pm reservation; I called and they told me they hold a reservation for 1 5 minutes, and they were ready when we arrived, and we were taken right to our table. We started with the Parker house rolls with chef made butter of sour cream and one of chive; they were both delicious. Then we moved to the acorn squash and burrata appetizer. I LOVED this dish, and it tasted fresh but also carried flavors of winter and fall. My husband didn't care for it. I think it was because it was a cold dish, but he simply it wasn't his thing. For our main course, we split the beef wellington and gnocchi "mac and cheese". Talk about DIVINE. The beef wellington was perfectly cooked and seasoned and the gnocchi mac and cheese tasted heavenly with lots of cheesy goodness ambidst the pillowy gnocchi. I got a cocktail and my husband got a beer to start; those were both delicious, and then a glass of Malbec for our meal, which came moments after the food was put down. We were far too full for dessert, but they graciously gave us each a glass of champs for my birthday. :)

    Service was impeccable! Food was so delicious! We had the pork chop and the brussels sprout salad. Salad was vibrant and fresh and the pork chop was melt in your mouth delicious (along with the sweet potatoes). The only negative is that we were seated at an awkward two-top next to a pole. But we would definitely return and tell all our friends to try it!
