The service and the food were outstanding. We had the Spanish Octopus, Filet and Scallops. The cocktails were the best I’ve had. Our waitress was personable and friendly. Can’t wait to return.

Not used to eating at a restaurant with higher prices but our experience was well worth it. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her steak and the boar I had was quite delicious! Their selection of beverages was quite impressive. Our server was very attentive and helpful.

As usual, our favorites - duck and scallops - were excellent, served elegantly, on time and with a smile . We had burgundy to accompany the meal, recommended by our knowledgeable sommelier.

Halloumi appetizer and filet entree were total wins. The wine to go program at half price is another winner. Service is top notch.
