    We went to eat on Mother's Day at 2 pm. According to them, it was a brunch. The food was a buffet where there wasn't a single protein, only two kinds of pasta, some bacon and potatoes, and worst of all, they charged us more than $300 for 4 people. If you're going to a brunch, don't even think about it.

    Excellent food. Enjoyed the jazz music with dinner. Had the scallops for appetizer and seafood pasta. Added veal meatballs to  pasta with red sauce. The service was excellent and very courteous. It is a place where you may have families as it is a hotel. Overall, very nice experience and I would definitely go back.  Enjoyed the upscale ambience.

    Food was terrific! We had the steak, veal Marsala, arancini, grilled octopus, scallops and every dish was fantastic. Service was fast, very accommodating (we had two young children) and we were able to find OT reservations and everything was smooth. Would highly recommend.

    We arrive for our reservation on time and were seated promptly out by the pool. Lovely setting, and very quiet. I ordered the octopus appetizer and it arrived promptly along with our cocktails. Brick, good, as described. We ordered the oxtail risotto and the veal Milanese as main courses. Both needed additional seasoning, especially salt. The mayonnaise was overcooked, unfortunately, and was a bit chewy. We had a glass of wine each with dinner and the service was very good. For the price point, the food was frankly a bit disappointing. Atmosphere service were top-notch, however. This restaurant is located inside the Kimpton hotel, so you have to use the valet at the front of the hotel. A bit of a slow process overall, did not give an outstanding value for money score on this restaurant because of The food quality. Hope to return and sample other items on the menu.

    It’s a 2 location experience! Both really good. The food and service were really top notch. Home made bread with flavor and texture and a dipping sauce that kept me ordering more. Cannot forget the food! Delicious! Upstairs view for drinks afterwards was romantic, fun, and just perfect! Great evening! Thanks to the Chef and crew for a wonderful evening!
