We went with a wedding party following a wedding. Had reservations for a party of 17 and after a brief wait were seated. The area was exceptionally busy because of a hockey game and and the parking was challenging, although some of us were fortunate to be able to park in the restaurants. Dedicated parking. Had we known how busy this area would be we might have made another choice, but at the end of the day everything worked out fine. The food was excellent. The cocktails were enjoyable and our single server who took care of our entire table did a great job. One suggestion, seeing that it was a wedding party, I would suggest that management would have at least provided a complimentary cocktail or perhaps a glass of champagne to The newlyweds. It would have been a nice touch and in view of the total ring out a small investment in Goodwill. Still all in all we had a good experience and I can't help but make a good recommendation for this establishment.
First visit and was NOT disappointed. Very quiet and relaxing environment. Server was very polite and welcoming. Food was very good as well.
We celebrated my husband’s birthday here & had an exceptional experience. Our server, Paul, was extremely professional & attentive. The warm gold lighting, the piano player, & open wood fire created a soothing atmosphere. The martini’s, hummus appetizer, shrimp & salmon meals were perfect. Paul brought my husband a delicious piece of cheesecake to celebrate his birthday dinner. Finally, the bouquets of fresh roses in the restroom was a lovely touch. Thank you all for creating a perfect memory to celebrate my darling husband.
We ended up there as a spontaneous location for our wedding anniversary dinner. The staff was very attentive to make sure we had a great dinner celebration. They treated us to a complimentary strawberry cheesecake which was amazing, and a return coupon in the form of an anniversary card. I had the Tomahawk pork chop which was excellent and she had a Ney York Strip was done nicely but had more marbling than she is used as she usually prefers a leaner cut. Overall we had a great evening and will be returning for another visit.
Our waitress was fabulous, she was on top of our order. Helped get my daughters to their concert timely, had great recommendations for desserts.
