First visit and can’t wait to return. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Our server, Josh, was spot on with his recommendations and service. The chef prepared my wife an off menu vegetarian entree which she loved. The ala cart sides were very delicious, well proportioned and many vegetarian options. Great spot to celebrate many occasions, business meal or just a casual meal Very nice selection of wine and champagne.

What a wonderful dinner! Morgan at the bar mixed excellent cocktails. Everything I had was so delicious! Gnocchi, tuna, octopus, gnudi, quail, carrots. All SO good. I recommend going with a group of 3-4 people so that you can get a few bites of lots of different things.

The food is expensive, but absolutely incredible. A single order can easily feed two people, and it's some of the best steak I've ever had. Definitely a great place for a significant celebration, like an anniversary or a birthday.

It was a lovely anniversary dinner. Bartender makes an excellent dirty martini but I would love to see a nicer/fresher olive or option of blue cheese stuffed. Our favorite food items were the carrots for the table and the sea bass. Everything was delish in a beautiful, romantic setting.

First time visit for a birthday dinner for two, and Sonia F. was our server. She was standoffish and not very expressive. I feel like we got a warmer reception from the hostess and other servers as we moved past them to our table. We were seated in the very back corner, which was suspicious, but ok. I like nature and looking out of the window, so I didn't ask to be moved. We were seated next to a larger birthday party, and she assisted that table and server better than ours. She didn't explain to us that bread was an extra charge after us waiting 30 minutes for our entrees and seeing it on other tables. I had to ask for it. It wasn't my preference as the outside is pretzel like and very salty, so maybe she's not a fan either. I asked her about substituting brussel sprouts with a steak entree (which she said they do not allow), making a joke to her about it being my date's birthday, and she quipped, "I don't own the place" in response. We should have left then, but he's a trooper. The steak was cooked very well and buttery. The short ribs were not my preference, but I was pleasantly surprised by the celery root puree (almost like potatoes) and the broccolini. The margaritas from the bar were great. I was completely done when she assisted the other party and brought out cake deserts for that table and hadn't even mentioned it to us. We locked eyes at that moment, and I knew that she was horrible. Lol! To add insult to injury, the valet brought his car around and took the keys to go get another car so we couldn't even make a hasty escape! 😂 Will never return, but thanks for the memories.

Morgan was an absolute pleasure. She had amazing recommendations and drink suggestions. I had the ribeye and you better be hungry as it's huge. Correctly cooked and very tender. The duck confit casserole was amazing. Parking is in the back and if you show up when they open, you probably won't need a reservation. Sit at the bar and Morgan will entertain you. I will come here again.

I had the Hanger (onglet) steak cooked perfectly, accompanied with faro and a mushroom Madeira sauce, and brocollini. My wife had fish and she really loved it. We had the asparagus table veggies, and my daughter had the prime beef NY Strip, and she loved it. The service was on point, and just the right level of attention. We would not hesitate to go again!
