We had the wedge Autumn salad, which was wonderful. The mushroom bolognese was very good, and the hanger steak was outstanding. The cabernet was really good and the pomegranite mousse dessert was tasty. It was a little loud, but not too distracting. The only real negative was our server. He was very sweet, but he talked so softly it was hard to hear him. He also would disappear for long periods of time so we had to go looking for him or flag him down a few times. We waited for our check after the table was cleared for at least 15 minutes.

Maya had a sweater that looked just like the woman at the table next to us. It was very funny but she didn’t want to take a picture with the other woman. We had a lot of fun and the food was amazing.
