    Terrific Sunday brunch; our party picked three different items and they were all tremendous. While the restaurant was busy, service was prompt and friendly.

    Very nice 2nd floor restaurant on. Nassau St. In Princeton. Food, service and ambiance were all excellent. My wife had the Scallops with Risotto and I had the Blue Cheese Bacon Burger. We also had the Duck Spring Rolls as an appetizer. Everything was very tasty and cooked to perfection

    My wife and visited for dinner. The food and service were excellent. Initially we were seated in a room off to the rear, and we thought it lacked atmosphere. After being there a while, we realized it was a little more intimate and we could hear each other talk. I had the Rabbit Wellington and my wife had the New York Strip. Both were very good, but the NY Strip was excellent. We would highly recommend this restaurant, and will certainly visit again.
