This was the first time dining in this restaurant as we had heard from other friends that the food & service was good so we gave it a try for my Birthday. We decided on an early dinner before 5pm and there were about 5 tables occupied of the 10+ tables there. To our surprise, there was a happy hour menu from 4-6pm so we got a chance to try some cocktails & small plates prior to ordering dinner. Javier did a great job explaining the specials. As plate after plate arrived at our table and we started sampling the food, we couldn’t stop eating and ate just about everything on each plate as the flavors of the dishes peaked our palates with surprise and satisfaction. Definitely coming back here.

We were celebrating a birthday. Everything is ala carte, even the bread & butter. The entree portions were huge but delicious. The Tiramisu was the best we've ever tasted! Prices are high but this was a special occasion.

Upbeat restaurant with delicious food. Our waiter was on top of everything he provided excellent service. The atmosphere and ambience was great too, and I can’t wait to go back again. Plus it was on a Friday evening and they had live music which was awesome.

We chose from the "date night" menu. It was plenty of food, and even took the desert home. We took advantage of the half priced bottle of wine. I wish I could go back , but I do not live in Nevada.

We had excellent lobster raviolis. Great wine selection and a wonderful dessert. I will have to say that our waitress, although good, needs a little more instruction on serving at an upscale restaurant. We will go back again tho.
