    5 of us dined there for supper tonight. All food was delicious. We ordered Chicken Piccata (2), Shrimp Po’boy, Croque Madam & Roasted Salmon. My only small issue was that the salmon was a bit overcooked. We also ordered drinks, beverages, & desserts. Mixed drinks were enjoyed. L’oriental hot tea was a favorite. Hot chocolate was perfection. Apple pie (2) was devoured as well as peanut butter pie. A lovely place for a lovely family dinner.

    Food was very good. We really enjoy the ambience during the holiday season and have made it a tradition for the past 3 years to visit during this time. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable and patient. Will go back again next year.

    The check in area was crowded with very little space to wait. Our table was ready about 10 minutes late and the host asked us to move but it was raining outside so there was nowhere else to stand. Our server and food were great, but prices have increased.

    Beautifully decorated for the holidays. Service was attentive but not intrusive. You can tell they run a tight ship here. Food was delicious. They perfectly cooked a rare steak, crab cakes and ham & brie sandwich. The fontina appetizer was wonderful as well. Of course the desserts were top notch!! Wonderful for a birthday celebration.
