Wonderful. Went on a Thursday evening after the holidays. Ate early because we were seeing an 8 pm opera. Beautiful space. Delicious food. Excellent cocktails. Friendly staff. Great service. Not cheap. However, there were fresh flowers and real candles on the table, and a live person playing the piano. Highly recommend it.

Katherin C was our waiter. She was so lovely and attentive and made our anniversary dinner so special. But her interactions with other table were just as wonderful as ours. What a wonderful employee you have. The food was outstanding and the venue stunning with all the greenery and lights. Definitely worth a visit. Food was priced very affordably as well.
