    Absolutely love this place. The atmosphere is very relaxed, the food and drinks are superb, so is the view and so is service (for the most part). I almost always order from the special or seasonal menu, and this time was no exception. Winter salad, scallops, special drink and espresso. The ingredients are simple but masterfully prepared. Sometimes difficult to get a reservation, so worth planning ahead. Highly recommend.

    Spectacular meal with incredible service. I was a bit disappointed by the dessert selection, but I'm a pastry chef with high standards and an Italian background. Very beautiful environment and the staff treated us well at every interaction. Will absolutely return here.

    We came to Autumn to celebrate a birthday. All of us are foodies, including a trained chef active in the industry, and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening. The menu had so many interesting options that we decided to go for the Chef’s Choice 4 course. Everything was plated beautifully and the quality of ingredients was top notch. From our initial sips of the craft cocktails, you must try the butter infused bourbon…, to the oh so jiggly creamy panna cotta for dessert, every bite was a delight. Kudos to the staff and chef!
