    The food was prepared well. By that, I mean items were cooked to proper temps and the ingredients were fresh and of good quality. The demiglace for my steak was so salty that salt was all I could taste. The beans and potato were unseasoned and boring. The wine and cocktails were on point, as was the teramisu. When the bill came, it was higher than I expected. Everything was correct. There was a small service charge that had no explanation other than, "Service charge". We live close and we do go out often. We only come here once in a while because every time we do eat here, we are left with the feeling that they either need to lower their prices, or improve their food and service.

    This restaurant was new to us, we have a gift certificate for it. Oh my gosh they didn’t disappoint! Some of the best food I’ve ever had! I ordered the filet mignon, it was fabulous! Also best Negroni I’ve ever had too! Will definitely be returning!
