Hardly anyone there at 1:00 for lunch. It was a nice experience but the spinach ravioli in vodka sauce was boring. The Caesar salad with salmon was great! We’ll go back but order something else.

Recently had an outstanding meal there. The highlight was the 45-day dry aged ribeye, which was perfectly prepared. I opted for the mashed potatoes and creamed spinach sides, which were also fantastic. Great cocktails, hisoric building with plenty of charm, and servers were all on their game. I'll be going back soon.
