I ate at this restaurant a few weeks ago and was delighted with the service and quality of food. For a Friday night the restaurant was very slow, however the service and food was great. I had the filet which was awesome. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations and I have been thinking of the food ever since. It was... more

It was very strange. My friend and I arrived at 5:30 for dinner and the place was empty. We walked in and the hostess asked us if we had reservations.
