Great experience overall. While waiting to be seated ahead of our scheduled reservation time, we enjoyed cocktails from the bar and sat by the fireplace in a cozy setting. The bar is expansive, and the live music (a vocalist w/an acoustic guitar) provided a perfect vibe. I would have rated this experience at five stars in every category, but they neglected to bring our appetizer out (or gave it to the wrong table.) Our waiter did make up for it by giving us an order as a to-go item at no charge. For entrées, I thoroughly enjoyed the Pan Seared Rockfish (substituted the asparagus with roasted vegetables), and my dining partner enjoyed the Pesto Primavera. We will definitely return!
