They seem to be trying to replicate the experience of Gene and Georgetti's or Oceana, but the quality just isn't on par. The portion sizes are quite small. Bless their hearts.

I didn't bring a broth until we asked for it halfway. food quality was also less than par, my dates huh, which I tried as she was done was very salty. As soon as we enjoyed coming here, it will probably not be so laborious to return.

Our waitress, the bartender, and the front of house staff took excellent care of us throughout our visit. Chef Jamie was warm and engaging, even stopping by to chat with us at the end of our meal. Some reviewers mention that the portion sizes are too small, but I believe that when the food is this outstanding, large portions aren’t necessary. Each dish was perfectly sized to satisfy my taste buds without leaving me feeling overly full or uncomfortable. This, to me, is precisely what a fine dining experience should be.

It was an incredible dining experience from start to finish. Everything was top-notch. Food: 5/5, Service: 5/5, Atmosphere: 5/5. read more It was an incredible dining experience from start to finish. Everything was top-notch. Food: 5/5, Service: 5/5, Atmosphere: 5/5.
