We were a group of 7 women (30’s to 50’s) in town for a work conference and found this mansion by chance. It was amazing. The entire mansion was a work of art, the food was excellent and not overpriced, the drinks were amazing. Despite not wearing Gucci or carrying a Chanel purse like many there, we were given excellent service and were seated center floor in front of the pool - best seat there. Honestly, if you are looking for a great place for dinner and drinks as well as stellar ambiance, this is a must!
