    This is definitely a special night out place. I've been there for holiday and birthday celebrations, and each time, it's fabulous. The service and ambiance are uniquely amazing. It's not a place to go for value, but it's definitely a worthy spot for celebrations. Food is solid but pricey - your surroundings makeup for any negatives due to price.

    The servers make this place what it is. They fall over themselves to provide an unforgettable experience, especially for anyone celebrating a special occasion. The food good but not outstanding. The desserts are of course the stars and well deserving of their accolades.

    Food is first-rate and ambience is magical. However, it was freezing cold in the main dining room and rather noisy making it difficult to hear normal conversation at the table. Tables are rather crowded together-just not that comfortable sitting for a leisurely meal. They can do better and should.

    It's a lovely place but for how expensive it is they really need to clean their light fixtures and replace all the stained chairs. They make the place look really dirty and for the cost they should maintain the place

    Always a treat! The desserts are incredible, ambiance fantastic, and the experience is delightful. Multiple items on my “wish list” were already sold out but fortunately many things to choose from.
