Went with my daughter to celebrate her birthday. First time at this establishment. Meal was $127 for two. I had the tzatziki salmon and my daughter the filet mignon. The salmon was super dry and the rice I didn’t even bother finishing it. The filet was ok. It was cooked med well despite requesting medium. After using a Groupon deal I already purchased online, waiter added another 20% tip to the bill. I asked where did it say on the Groupon deal that they can charge an additional 20% tip? He said, not on the deal but instead it was their “policy” to do so because “people don’t know how to tip when they use Groupon.” I am extremely disappointed that he believed it was ok to charge a 20% tip when quite frankly, he didn’t deserve it. His mediocre service and the food didn’t warrant a generous 20% tip and adding it after already paying more than the Groupon cost was insulting. The fact that no one even acknowledged my daughter’s birthday, despite telling three employees, was also equally disappointing. Maybe the owner, Rouz, can explain why even bother offering a deal on Groupon and then have his employees turn around and charge a 20% tip at the end of the meal when the service wasn’t even that great? Especially, for a party of two. Nevertheless, I don’t recommend this restaurant at all. You’re better off going to Boccaccio’s Restaurant that is two doors down and where the food and service is exceptionally better.

Great location with nice views of the lake and a decent bar. However, the service is lacking, servers seem unknowledgeable about the menu and there are long waits between servers visiting the table. The food was very average, menu seems more geared for appetizers and drinks rather than entrees. Would comment on dessert, but it was never offered.

Great experience! Our server Trinity was so kind and gave great service. We got a few appetizers, and we loved the lamb lollipops and Thai chicken lettuce wraps. Key lime martini is a great dessert cocktail.
