    We went to celebrate my husband's birthday and Valentine's day. The experience was good, I wasn't blown away about any of the food, but it was great quality. The dessert was very yummy and the service was amazing. The best part for me, was taking a walk down the path and enjoying to ambience with my husband.

    It was a stunning entrance visually, and a high level of service the moment I walked in. The hostesses were kind and patient and helped me wherever they could. The dining was excellent and the service was fantastic all the way through to the valet (the CC process was a pain though…I got about twenty notifications showing the receipt had arrived…disconcerting) Overall a wonderful experience.

    The grounds are always beautiful and today was no exception for our Sunday brunch for 9. The food was very good, although one dish did need to be reprepared because the rice wasn’t done. The waitress apologized and the manager stopped by the table, too. Music from the guitarist was excellent. Waitress was very attentive and helpful with suggestions. The food was pretty slow to come to the table. That, and the returned dish, were the hiccups in an otherwise lovely brunch. Always enjoy eating here.
