We had a lovely table with a great view of the city and the multicolored lit trees outside. The ambience was awesome-- modern and immaculate with a sense of spaciousness. Even more important, the menu was pretty well marked for gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options (although there are some misleading GF labels that should be labeled as GFO). Our entrees were truly delicious -- even our fussy grandsons were impressed. It was a memorable GF birthday experience for my husband.

Food was delicious- we had brunch and tried 4 different dishes and all were amazing! Looking forward to returning for dinner. The view in the dining room overlooked the lake. Great place for a celebration
