The food was beautifully prepared and delicious . Service was very good, non- obtrusive but attentive . We asked for the half round table next to the piano when we made the reservation and that is where we were seated. It was vey appreciated that we were not rushed and asked if we wanted to relax with our drinks before the menus were brought over. A wonderful evening. We did notice that the prices had increased dramatically since our last visit. We just hope the Resturant is still open the next time we come to DC.
