    Excellent meal in a beautiful setting. Great location and ambiance in the dining room. Service was lacking as our waiter went AWOL most of the evening, but otherwise a great experience.

    I had expected a bit more along the lines of the Marble Room. The setting is a bit limited by a hotel environment. The people and service were very nice. Reasonably good wine list. Expectations should be closer to a "nice hotel restaurant".

    Everything was excellent, from the service to our meals! Our only regret is not visiting much sooner. What a treasure we have quietly tucked away on a corner in CLE! We’ll be back very soon.
