    Excellent food and very nice ambiance. Would be helpful to redirect the air flow off bench seats in dinning room as bet cold and made food cool off way too fast.

    We went on a Tuesday night so there wasn't much of a crowd. The decor was new and modern. The menu was not extensive but had good choices. The Graphite Salad accompanied my main dish and was very tasty. My filet was very tender and the side dishes had great flavor.

    This was our second time eating here and another fantastic meal. It’s a little noisy but we still had a great time.

    The filet was super small not sure if it was a full 6 oz. The puree with it tasted like baby food. The halibut was okay, the cream sauce made it better but wasn’t much of it in the bowl. The waitress wasn’t that great, actually cut in multiple times while we were talking and then disappeared. Menu was small then the food better be amazing. Overall food was not worth the price.

    Was amazing celebrated our 24th wedding anniversary. Only complaint is it feels more finer dining which is what we wanted and there was a lot of casual and screaming kids. Food was wonderful and grateful it is on the il side.

    First impression not great. Seated without menus. Servers asked our drink choices, we had no menus. Brings two, comes back later asks again. We had no drink/wine menu. Brought that to us. Orders came out quickly. Salad was very nice entrees not so much. The braised short rib roast was bland, green beans and carrots tasted like the roast. Bland. Only save was the parsnip purée. Filet mignon was over cooked, bland and a very small cut. Mashed potatoes salty. Each over 40$. Raspberry cobbler tasted like store bought cake mix with sugar syrup saturated throughout. No brightness with the berries at all. Didn’t even eat it. They comped the dessert. That was nice of them. Server was training another and that was fine but not once did they offer to fill our waters or pour additional wine from the bottle we ordered. Both very polite but not very attentive to a fine dinning experience. For what it’s worth we vastly over paid. I also feel like it was way too loud near the front. We hardly spoke because we didn’t want to yell to each other.
