The deceptively simple menu demands every dish earn its place: the choicest cuts of meat, freshest fish, classic sauces. The vibe? Grown up, relaxed, playful. The setting? An opulent room you’ll feel at home in, only better!

We were greated and brought to our table in a timely fashion. The staff all seemed attentive. Food was fine. I had the roast but may have been a bad choice in my part. Mozzarella salad was delicious. Would go back and try something different and menu seemed nice.
