The overall environment was outstanding with service and the dishes were delicious. For a bill with 2 drinks and 4 food items my total came up to $150 on Valentine's Day. There is indoor and outdoor dining and they provide shawls incase you get cold. The setting is small and intimate as tables are very close together, which may be important to keep in mind as it pertains to noise level. I could hear my neighbors conversations and vice versa.

I believe I have waited over 6 months to visit this restaurant, and they did not disappoint. My wife and I loved the ambiance and the price was very reasonable for the tasty food we had
