How can it not be good Spectacular service throughout the evening from the coat check to dinner service to dancing the night away. 6 course tasting menu was fantastic. 5 stars for all courses except the bison, which was not as tasty as it could be and the sea bass was a bit “fishy” tasting. Loved the singer and guitarist and of course the ambiance is always a treat
