    We enjoyed a pre-Valentine's dinner with amazing service from Princis, fabulous recommendations to try the TaterTot pizza special (really good), the pan-seared sea scallops (plentiful and tasty), the chicken tortilla soup (hot and yummy), and kept our five-year-old in check with calamari, brie cheese curds, pepperoni pizza and green beans (he is an eating machine). In the end, it was a fun night out with consistent food choices, impeccable service, and a lively atmosphere.

    Dinner was spectacular. We got the scallops and pork belly, roasted cauliflower, rainbow trout, artisanal seasonal pasta, roasted carrots, and the donuts and chocolate creme brûlée for dessert. Wow! Everything was so delicious! Our favorite was the trout which had this exquisite sauce and the skin was crispy and delicious. The pasta was awesome with zucchini, peas, asparagus, mint, and lemon. The carrots had the most delicious lemon yogurt sauce! And the cauliflower was seasoned with some Indian tasting spices and had these crispy chickpeas which added the perfect crunch. The donuts were to die for! It’s a huge portion of 10 gigantic beignets style donuts. So good! Amy was our server. She was engaging and attentive and the food came out perfectly timed We will definitely be back!

    Lovely setting, attentive service, delicious meal and exciting cocktails. We loved every aspect of our date night dinner. Beef tartare, scallops and duck were all outstanding and beautiful. Passionfruit tart also very nice. Don’t miss the passionfruit cocktail with bubbles, sidecar or espresso martini. Exceptionally good.
