“Ok.... so we had such a great experience 2 weeks ago when we went for the first time that we bragged so much about it and decided to return last week with a friend. Well it was a completly different experience and it was so terrible that i said i would not return. I even gave them such a bad reviews because I was so angry. Anyways today my Husband talked me into going again because he said let's try it one more time. Give them a chance we might be surprised.When we walked in....I knew the young server from last week remembered us from last week and I told my Husband I know they saw the bad review I gave. I was uncomfortable but stayed. The young woman that came up and asked if we wanted something to drink she was very nice. We Hadn't seen her the last 2 visits. But it turned out that she's one of the managers. Her name was Yvette. I think the server from last week didn't want to help us but I can't say that I blamed her. When She brought our coffee and asked if we were ready to order. We ordered and my Husband mentioned we had a bad experience last week but we would like to try the fruit plate again. She told us right away that she had seen the review and so did the owner and she knew it was us from the server telling her it was. She apologized right away about what happened to us and explained the young server we had last week was new and that they appreciated our real input because it helps the restaurant learn. She said the owner even had a meeting about things to improve on. She Thanked us for giving them another try. She continued to be our server. Everything was awesome. She talked to us off and on a few times and even though it was awkward.... it was really nice. When she gave us our check.... she tried to comp the ticket which was nice. We said it was unessasary. She still gave us a few bucks off anyways which was nice. I attached a picture of the wonderful fruit plate too. Anyways....I guess the moral here is.... sometimes a bad review helps like in this case. But sometimes.... including myself.... we sould maybe stop think that maybe everyone has a bad day and sometimes it's better to remember that.Thanks Guys for a great visit this time!“

“Hadn't been here in years but came back with some friends last week and loved it. The tuna and seabass were out of this world and even the rigatoni was surprisingly awesome. I say surprisingly because they aren't known for pasta but it was perfectly al dente and the sauce was rich without being heavy. There were 7 of us at dinner and every one of us left stuffed and happy. Highly recommend!“

“Took our family member here for her birthday. Tanya, our server, was so welcoming and pleasant. She seemed like she genuinely enjoyed people and her disposition was very authentic and rare among servers. There was also a bus person on staff who was prompt with filling waters, clearing plates, etc. It is clear that this restaurant takes service very seriously. Despite the great service, it never felt stuffy btw.The food was also on par with the service. We had salads (one pear and two beet), the Chilean sea bass, cioppino, crab cakes, and a few dishes for the kids. Everything was fantastic: fresh and well prepared..We had a reservation for outdoor dining which ended up being on a windy evening. The outdoor patio was actually sheltered and heated, so despite being offered to move inside, we enjoyed the outdoor patio. What an amazing restaurant; would definitely recommend!“

Two brave souls ordered the Calves (Calf?) Liver and raved about it. The Somellier was excellent, guiding us toward an excellent Pinot and (my favorite) the Super Tuscan. All in all, a great night out and a never-forget imptession for our customers.“

“This is my go-to special occasion restaurant and it's a huge treat whenever I get to eat here. It's not a vegan restaurant, but their menu is much more plant focused than most. On our last visit we got the grilled artichoke appetizer which was unbelievably tender and is served with warm vegan butter for dipping, the paella and the king oyster scallops. All were excellent. My friend has never eaten vegan food before and was blown away. He said the king oyster scallops were one of the best meals he's ever had! We also got the warm chocolate cake for dessert, which was amazing. Bonus - they have a fab mocktails menu including CBD drinks which were seriously delicious. Can't wait for another special occasion to return here! Updated from previous review on 2024-04-14“
