First visit. Nondescript facade hides a really pretty space inside. Nice looking bar area. The dining room is decorated with large photos by a local artist. Server was friendly and gave good recommendations. Food from beet salads, fish and scallops was excellent. Plan to visit again, especially for live Jazz.
