We made the reservation for the Alsace Wine dinner. Food was so good, and the wines were chosen perfectly. The sommelier was really helpful and took time to go around to explain the wines, it made the experience even better! Can’t wait for the next event!!

The food was very good. Highly recommend the restaurant. Inventive non alcoholic drinks. The service was very good. The layout of the seating not as private. Tables too close to each other. Use of the nearby doors makes the place very cold on a breezy Boston winter day. Dress accordingly.
