I think some effort went into the 3 different toppings but it fell flat on my tastebuds. Service was good, the bristro was clean, and welcoming. Nice warm decor, comfortable chair and booth seating.

The food was delicious, particularly the goat cheese fritters, shishito peppers, and loaded potato flatbread. The service was top-notch, with helpful suggestions and attentive waitstaff who were efficient without making us feel rushed. The music added a nice ambiance and we all agreed that we'll definitely be returning soon.

I had allowed an hour and a half for dinner but the kitchen was slammed this night. Our salads and entrees were excellent but long waits between courses. There was live music in the dining room so honestly we wouldn’t have minded a bit but we had the show tix. We had to skip dessert on the prefixe dinner and the waiter and manager very graciously comped our drinks. The adjusted bill for the night was very fair and we made it to our show on time. I will definitely come back.

Food was amazing and service was good but it took forever for our order to be taken and then almost an hour for our food to arrive. read more Food was amazing and service was good but it took forever for our order to be taken and then almost an hour for our food to arrive.

When we got there we were seated promptly and received waters, after that it was all downhill we weren’t greeted by our waiter after 15 mins. Finally after 15 minutes we were able to order drinks. Then it took another 10 minutes or so to order our dinner. Dinner took extremely long to get and the food looked like it was just thrown on the plate and the taste was nothing special. Very disappointing! I could have made the same meal at home at a fraction on the price and lot faster too. We were there just about 2 hours and won’t be going back
