Even though the reservation was made more than 2 weeks ago and we could only get a 3:00 time slot— that was no big deal. We got a fantastic table on the 2nd floor, our server was a delight and very helpful, our food was incredible— just an all around wonderful Valentines Day “linner” (lunch/dinner)! It’s really no wonder it’s hard to get a table; this place is our favorite!

I had the best Wagyu Japanese steak! My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the Pinot noir. And I must say the best chocolate cake ever. We will definitely be back again. Thank you for making our night special.
