    We booked a table for 2 as a birthday date. The seafood was marvelous and the creme brule with the Birthday chocolate cake was outstanding. Our waiter Eddie was very attentive and did a wonderful job.

    I hope this restaurant lasts forever. The food is special in that it's innovative and REALLY good! The servers are knowledgeable and friendly. The interior decor is not ornate but attractive. Dinner last night was very good but unfortunately we were seated next to a table of very loud individuals. This is not the restaurant's fault but is very annoying. We had the scallop and milk bread....I think I could live on this, the gnocchi which are incredibly light and tasty, the capacity which was a special and boy was it special and the veal. Veal was good but not 5he standout the rest of the meal was. Cocktails were innovative and the wine list is small but good. Highly recommend this place if you are willing to try big city style gourmet eating. People looking for large portions with mediocre taste should stay away.
