    Always a lovely destination. A little off the 'beaten path' but GPS guides you there. It is a lovely setting - it is easy to see why it is so popular for weddings and parties. We were seated promptly in a quiet room; the ambiance is calm and beautiful. Our server, Collin, was attentive and polite without being intrusive. The 'food runners' were genuinely nice, too. Surprisingly, the food did not quite match expectations compared to prior visits. Some items such as the Caesar Salad, Snapper Soup, Steak au Poivre and Branzino were very good. The Tartine Appetizer was interesting but dry. The crabcakes were disappointing - very dry and bready without much crab. The sides (rice and shaved Brussel sprouts) were good. We enjoyed two delicious desserts - Creme Brule and Cherry Galette with vanilla ice cream. We enjoyed celebrating a special birthday in this lovely setting and will certainly return. Thank you!

    The lobster flatbread had little flavor and the crust was not thin warm from the oven . Very disappointing. The other meal steak was chewy. The crab cakes were good.

    My wife and I were finally able to enjoy my Christmas gift of dinner at this favorite. As usual, the food and service was top flight. Our waiter did not rush us. The branzino was outstanding. My snapper soup was terriffic. The Roasted Lamb Shoulder Ragout was other-worldly. We were seated in the front porch next to a window and it was very cold outside and some of that cold seeped through the windows such that my wife needed her overcoat on her shoulders. Otherwise, the evening was perfect.

    The service and ambience and a fireplace in each room made the experience. Food has been average to good ( chicken spatzell was a little dry but the bed of carmelized cabbage and potatoes on which it was resting were excellent as was the preceding Caesar salad .). Martini was perfect dry and cold. Would def come back for a romantic dinner

    We reserved the enclosed patio and were told upon arriving that OpenTable had bumped us to the horrid downstairs terrace/bar. I ordered the whipped brie as an appetizer. It arrived watery, cold, and unappetizing. My dinner mate ordered the scallop special. It arrived cold and had to be sent back. The main dining room were we sat was noisy. That is why we preferred the enclosed patio. Not worth the $250 we paid for dinner.
