So there will be some changes soon. I had the eggplant pouches which were delicious. Others enjoyed some gluten-free options. The salads are fresh and delicious. The night we were there, the place was packed, including one very large table that did suck up some of the servers time. Still it's a relaxing spot to reconnect with friends. Hope the new spot is as welcoming.

My Halibut Entre did not taste like Halibut and was very fishy smell and tasting. I sent it back. The blessing was very gracious and brought me another escape. The other guest dinner wasn't great. The pig hard and chewing, another pasta dish was very salty. Great wine selection. It was a bit cold sitting on the windows, but it was private and we could all hear each other talking, not always the case in some restaurants.
