    I really enjoyed the Valentine's Day specials. The sea bass, strawberry salad and Cupid's Arrow drink were all wonderful. My husband had the Atwater's salad, lobster tail risotto which were also delicious. Renee was great, along with the service from the entire staff. We enjoyed the intimate atmosphere.
