Excellent restaurant and a long awaited addition to this area. Menu has a good variety. Very pricy but definitely worth going for a special occasion. Excited to try out a non steak option next visit and a desert.

Our dinner was great. It was nice to be seated at a table as opposed to the bar. The cocktails were delicious. The sea bass was amazing, as was the chicken parm, which exceeded our expectations. Service was fabulous. The flatbread was only so-so. But overall, excellent dinner.
