    This place is the only premium restaurant in a large area starved for premium restaurants so it gets away with serving subpar food at premium prices. It’s a nice place to hang out, but overcooked salmon and slimy burrata salad just didn’t do it for us…

    My team and I were in town on a border retreat, and your restaurant came highly recommended. We truly enjoyed ourselves and look forward to coming back in the future.

    Food and service were excellent. We sat at a high top table at the wine bar and our server was very attentive and friendly. Sometimes bar service isn’t great, but we were pleasantly surprised by how good the service was.
