we have gone to this restaurant many times. we have never had anything but a magical yes magical experience. from the warmth of the greeting to the whole ambiance and other diners. everyone is having a great time, relaxed, unhurried. the food is next level as is the wine. it’s worth every penny we save up to go all in. there are very reasonable price points on the menu but this is the kind of place you should save up and splurge.
