                                                        Dark black walls and warm wood exterior set the vibe for this downtown lake Geneva gem. We had a very nice dinner. Nice that the hostess offered to hang our coats. Quaint and chill vibe. Perfect night with light snow falling on downtown lake Geneva. Good drinks and had choice of still or sparkling water. Had mussel appetizer which was excellent. Topped with crispy frites. We had a really good salad and special pasta with homemade Bolognese- this was excellent. Excellent waitress and we expect great service so this was very refreshing! Owner is chef and clearly shows distinction and talent while paying attention to the details. So happy we finally tried this place. It is on our short list of favorites in the area.

                                                        Everything was absolutely terrific and our waiter was great but there is a fine line about how many times to make contact with the table and at times it became awkward with the amount of QC-checking we received; although that is a good issue to have experienced..! We will be returning !

                                                        I don't mind the darkness, but the music was a bit too loud and I know I sound old, but when you can't hear your waiter well due to it, it shouldn't be as loud. Food was amazing again and loved the vibe for new years

                                                        Our waiter was outstanding very good at making sure all the needs of our party were met. However certain dishes such as the nochi was sub-par and over seasoned. Additionally, for the price in this location is a bit over priced. Overall 3/5

                                                        The restaurant has a lovely ambience and the menu looks great - unfortunately the execution wasn't great when we visited. We had a table for 7. It took nearly an age for the first 4 dishes to come out (mac and cheese!) but the other three meals did not come out until we had asked the waitress twice to hurry the rest of the food up. When it did arrive, the medium rare steak was destroyed and can only be described as extremely well done. We even had to ask 3 times for bred for the table. The waitress said it was Saturday night and the chef doesn't have any help in the kitchen..... I suggest that for an improved customer experience, that he hires more staff. On a good note, we did have allergy requirements and they were all honored which was great
