Katlan P.Katlan Penny: The food here was great - lamb and sea bass was yummy. The lobster pot pie was pretty good too. The service was meh considering we ate here the night we got married, I guess we expected more.

Jason M.Jason Mow: Local sea bass is great! The skin is crispy and the fish tender. The French onion soup could be better, it's a bit too light for my taste.

William C.William Chang: Mixed green salad was quite delicious! Great candied nuts and gooey blue cheese to go along with the vinaigrette and grapes. The menu changes often also so don't look for older specialties

Tobi W.Tobi Wurm: Can only recommend this - we felt it's underrated on Foursquare- price indication with $$$$ is misleading main courses are in the 20ies. Lamb Sierloin & Veal Milanese with Brie/prociutto was amazing

Oscar G.Oscar Godoy: Duck is a joy there

ShaynaShayna: Good value for a usually serene dining experience: entrees are only $18 and the ambiance is lovely. Very crowded mid to late week. Go on Mondays or Tuesdays when it's quieter.
