    This used to be a special restaurant, but it's gone downhill. They tried (twice) to bring the main course out while I was still eating my first course. Fish tasted fishy. Too bad. The server was really sweet, and she was the best part of the experience. .

    Food was excellent. Service a bit slow but we appreciated that because it was a slow night they let us keep the table for 2.5 hours.

    This chef is extremely talented. Food presentation and taste were excellent. Start with Borscht, have the Hslibut and end with delicious Pistachio Ricotta cake.
