It was a quiet night at the restaurant but the food and service were excellent. The Brussels sprouts appetizer was fabulous. We had the Salmon dish and the shrimp and scallops dish. Both tasted great. Did not get dessert. Happy hour at the bar will be my next visit.

Food was delicious, nicely presented and creative, and a good value, as was the wine compared with many other fine food restaurants, factoring in the expected wine markup. The service was attentive, perhaps a bit too so, as the waiter came back every minute or two to ask us if we were ready to order after we had literally just sat down, even though the restaurant was not at all crowded so there was no reason to be in a rush to get our order in, but she was otherwise excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant!
