    I have been to this restaurant several times and it never disappoints. The food was outstanding, and the service was impeccable. Our server, although very busy, was amazing. He truly went out of his way to make sure everything was great. I had the sizzling shrimp appetizer which was very different and made to perfection. My husband had the breaded chicken, and I had the ravioli both of which were excellent. While they had some interesting signature cocktails, it would have been nice, to add some holiday drinks and some old favorites like chocolate martinis. We are locals so having this amazing new and different restaurant is a bonus to our community.

    First, Julian is the best server ever! There was a wedding rehearsal dinner in the bar room, so the noise was much greater than normal. Only partially thru our dinner did the adjoining doors get closed. Lamb chops and prime rib were perfect. The sides of potatoes (both roasted and mashed) and asparagus must have been plated well before the main, as they were cool. They need dessert options that do not include ice cream. Even so, we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner.
