    Received a $100 dollar reward for wine offer. Great food, Lillian was friendly and knowledgeable. We both ordered the filets withe 2 sides included. Ordered another side order of risotto per Lillian’s recommendation. Good value for around $140 + free $100 for wine. Every time we come here, we ask ourselves why we don’t come more frequently.

    Wonderful evening with superb service. We had a group of 8 women and they were very accomodativv bf with separate checks , quick service and healthy food options. Of course , the wine flights were fantastic and one woman didn’t know what she wanted so our server came up with the perfect “sweet white” flight. Performers were a little loud but was great that they had live music. Perfect night and venue.
