My husband and I went there for our wedding anniversary and the service was amazing. From the hostess to the waiter they were all so attentive and kind. I loved that it was freezing in the restaurant. The food did take a little time to come out but everything was delicious. The truffle fries were amazing! My steak was a little more cooked for my liking (I asked for medium) but it was still delicious. All in all I would definitely come here again!

This is my third visit. Wonderful and cost, great seating and fireplaces, sunset view. Cocktail Drinks excellent and great wine list. Food so tasty, but need a couple of additional options for vegans. Music could be tones down a notch and lighting raised a notch. Otherwise fun and perfect for a fete a gets or group gathering.
