    The seven course meal was quite filling. The duck was superb. We added the white truffle dish which was also excellent, but probably a bit more food than we needed.

    Dinning room seemed a little too crowded. Person at table next to one of us was too close. Service was good especially Constantinos. Notwithstanding that the restaurant was crowded and he was busy, he made us feel welcome and was responsive to questions and requests for minor changes in the menu. The asparagus risotto was especially good.
