I had a Caesar salad, it was not too good: only half a piece of a tomato and maybe one egg or less – mostly lettuce under not the best sauce. Gnocchi portion is quite small. Other than that, everything was great, the interior was beautiful, and the barmen was making pretty cocktails in front of our eyes.

It’s part of a charming group of eateries that includes a dive bar and a basement venue, all sharing a single liquor license. This establishment is both fun to explore and steeped in history. The decor is striking, featuring romantic themes between famous actors depicted on the backs of chairs, wallpaper, and various other decorations. The food is exceptional— I tried the duck ragu, and it was absolutely delicious.

My go-to recommendations include the fried oysters, pork belly, fries, frog legs, live burger, and duck ragu. Today, I tried the pan-seared walleye with wasabi potatoes and oyster-spinach velouté gravy. The meal was absolutely perfect! There's no doubt I'll be returning.
