Fantastic restaurant! The service was first class. Alex, our primary server, was intelligent and knowledgeable. His suggestions for wine pairings were spot on! The food was as great as the service. The crab meat appetizer, duck and scallop entrees, and the deserts were phenomenal! It was our anniversary and they personalized a menu and even had the chef sign it! Definitely will return.

My husband & I did the Chefs Table last night to celebrate his birthday. The experience was amazing & the four courses & wine were scrumptious. The Chef & his staff were awesome!!! Definitely an experience everyone should try.
