Large bowls of colorful citrus for making cocktails sit atop a twenty-foot long bar perfect for grabbing a glass of wine or a bite to eat.

Windows surround the North side of the dining room, allowing our guests to gaze out onto the fountain in our courtyard.

In the past, the restaurant inside was quite noisy. Now that they have added the outdoor patio section, I found the inside of the restaurant to be much less noisy and more enjoyable. Our server was great and the food was timely and tasty. Will definitely return!

Felt rushed. Food was good… We were offered 2 tables to chose from even though the place was not full. Asked to to sit on the benches by the fire but we were told that there was a reservation for 14 people at 6:30pm (only a couple sat there until we left around 7:15pm). We sat on one of the tables they offered us and at around 7pm they told us that they needed the table for another reservation (We were still drinking our wine).
