    First time trying it. Went for Valentine's Day and for the live music. Very happy with everything. Music was great and dining was fantastic. Service was friendly and accommodating. The portions were good enough where there were no leftovers but we weren't overly stuffed. I had the Beef Carpaccio and the Osso Buco. Both were delicious. I would definitely go again. Its hard to find a fine dining restaurant with live jazz or any other music. Most are Trendy hipster bars. The singer was really good, I don't know his name but we enjoyed it. Wish I could find a female Jazz singer in a fine dining atmosphere.

    Winterlicious 2025. Semi-hidden restaurant on the second floor. Ambience is excellent - it’s modern but warm with comfortable touches like their couch seating that spans much of the northern perimeter. Regular menu is small and easy to choose from, wine selection offers plenty of choice. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained. We had two servers and both were very friendly and attentive. Glasses were kept full of water which I appreciated. Food- I’ll start by saying it’s a 4 course winterlicious meal. There was a lot of food between the dips, mezze , main and dessert. I believe a floor manager or host recommended the Truffle Rakakat (spelling*) for the mezze portion. Not that the other food wasn’t great but, man oh man, the Rakakat was VERY good. If you like cheese, it’s a levelled up mozzarella stick. Mains were lamb and skewer plates. Both great and there was plenty of food, no skimping here! All in all, it was a great winterlicious experience here. Makes me want to come back for the regular service menu.
