First time at this restaurant. Will definitely be back. I ordered the duck which was very good, I just wish it was not so sweet. Could have been great without the sugar. The cheese biscuit was fantastic. Lovely place, nice to go somewhere new.

Experience and food was a hit and miss situation all night. The small plates were wonderful, but the entrées were overpriced for what you got and two people in our party of four wanted to send theirs back. Interestingly enough, one of the two in our party who barely touched their entrée got a lot of attention and apologies from our waiter about the fact that they didn’t like their entrée and how sorry he was. The other person who literally took two bites of their shepherd’s pie was completely ignored even when they tried to raise the issue.

Go for the good not the bland decor dining room. Brunch was scrumptious and on point for what you would expect from such an iconic chef and restaurateur.

This would have been 5 stars if I had kept my eyes closed during the meal. The food tasted really good, the service was excellent, and I loved the atmosphere, but plating looked like someone dropped the food onto the plate from 3 feet above it. Presentation was a miss!
