First this restaurant could have been plucked out so any number of Northern European cities. The atmosphere was warm and inviting and worked well for our business dinner (place was less then 20% full so no noise issuers at all). Our waitress was great she know the menu, how to do scribe it and sell the food diving into flavors,... More

We had a fantastic meal last night for our 24th wedding anniversary. We arrived a bit early and we were seated in the window seat with a view of the river. Already, it's starting out nicely.

Not worth the $$$...food lukewarm and just average fare..desserts disappointing. Walls of the restaurant needed a good cleaning.

Friendly, attentive, informative staff: check. Creative, fresh, superbly prepared, cooked, and presented food: check. A bill that doesn't leave you with any regrets: check.... More

Place is not cheap and do not expect a burger and fries or fish n chips here. Staff is excellent and food is amazing we have been here about a half a dozen times with no problem. Expansive wine list great mixed drinks. Terrible beer selection other than that great views from the second floor. Service is on par with... More
