    From the moment we stepped in the door every moment was delightful. A friendly welcome and taken to our table where a delightful person came to take our drink order. Food well presented and delicious. The view of the garden was superb. We will definitely return soon.

    A very good dining experience. Though this one was a bit slow even tho the place wasn't busy. My medium requested lamb chops came out rare. Long times between courses. But nice server--don't think it was his fault.

    A varied menu that offers classic selections. Everything is prepared to order, is perfectly executed, and beautifully presented. Take your time to enjoy the view in the gardens or sit outside. There is a full bar and a good wine list. The service is (thanks Rob) attentive but not intrusive, with no rushing. We love coming for special events.

    The staff are outstanding and certainly add to a most pleasant dining experience. Our dinners were expertly prepared and well presented. We also enjoyed a table by the window which overlooked the beautiful gardens. We definitely are dining there again!

    The food was ok. The duck dish was good, but the sauce was very peppery, and needed to be more sweet to accompany the duck. The sweet breads were very good. The parfait was not good. The brittle was bitter almost burnt tasting and dumping straight liquor just isn't that tasty. The atmosphere was nice...but very old school. Service was slow...but it was busy.

    Beautiful setting that reminds us of a secluded European restaurant. The menu is a mix of Continental and New Orleans. Can't wait to return to try other items on the menu.
