    A lovely experience. Had planned to eat here before seeing Patti LuPone for a nice brunch with friends. Patti was cancelled so brunch became the main event. We sat for close to 3 hours, enjoying a leisurely meal, unrushed. The courses were spaced perfectly and the service and food were both very good.

    Party of 5. Service excellent. Most of the dishes were very good although one (mixed seafood) was disappointing. Price point of $62. not justified based on the quality of the food.
