Extremely pretty setting. Exterior dining is set with fairy lights and foliage with banquettes and tables linen set. Well heated too. Inside has different height candelabras in high ceilings, dimly lit for that romantic/ comfortable vibe. Service was spot on. Informative, friendly, not intrusive. Food great, reasonable prices, many choices. Would recommend.
