The food was great. Everyone on the staff was super nice. A little quiet inside. The drinks are a little overpriced for the custom cocktails and they are just ok presentation wise for the price.

We had a team dinner and decided to head across the street to The Berkeley, for convenience, and were pleasantly surprised to have a wonderful meal in the newly renovated space.

We had reserved a table for four as it was Thanksgiving Saturday night before the theatre - but upon arrival the restaurant was empty. But we had the most delicious sumptuous feast with four different choices on the menu; every dish extraordinary and delicious; a waiter who graciously accepted additions and changes; a staff that was attentive; and a chef that deserves three stars for exceptional dishes.
