We visited this restaurant recently and was somewhat disappointed. The salad wasn’t as fresh as I expected—it seemed a bit wilted and not as crisp as it should’ve been. The meat also didn’t meet my expectations; it lacked flavor and was on the tougher side. The atmosphere and service were so nice, but overall, the food didn’t really stand out. It’s an okay place, but I was hoping for more.

I went for lunch specifically to avoid a crowd and to have smaller meal portions. It was perfect and our waiter gave us excellent menu recommendations. The place was recommended to me not just for the food but because the service is exquisite. Although it was noon, I felt pampered in a way fine dining should make one feel. I highly recommend.

The food was great, I highly recommend the sea bass. They over cooked my fiancés steak but immediately corrected it. The wait staff was fantastic and on top of everything.
