    I made a reservation for 1, and they sat me at the bar in the corner that was almost completely hidden. Which is fine but I was there for an hour and was never offered a food menu. I never go out to eat by myself so I was already anxious just being there. I finally asked for bread and still was never offered a food menu. I left still hungry and embarrassed.

    I’ve been wanting to dine here for a while and unfortunately didn’t live up to my expectations! The food was mediocre, the service was better. Over priced for what it is.

    The place was slammed- but the table was being held for us❤️👍- the food was very good- but the sole marinaire was more like a portion of fish on potatoes than the real thing🤔- but I would go back- the cost for three of us was consistent with s big city. — a little noisy
