Excellent experience! First time at this location and it did not disappoint. My dad was able to get us a reservation for Christmas Day a week before which was impressive. Valet is offered and our party of 6 was seated immediately. This restaurant is elegant and intimate — great for special occasions or a date night.
They have an extensive wine list and craft cocktails. Bread baskets were brought out to start — I will say this was my least favorite part of the meal. The breads here are just not very good unfortunately. My partner agreed with me on this one.
For most of our entrees, we ordered filets. One person ordered the rack of lamb. All sides are a la carte and we ordered: garlic mashed potatoes, mushrooms, broccolini, and white cheddar Mac and cheese. Everything was exceptional in taste and temperature and cooked as requested.
For dessert, we opted for the butter cake and key lime pie. We also ordered vanilla ice cream. The desserts came with fresh whipped cream as well. The butter cake was excellent — so buttery and delicious. The key lime pie had a wonderful crust and was well-balanced.
We enjoyed our Christmas Day dinner here. Thank you for the excellent service.

The room where we were seated was too loud. It was a busy night for them, but they need soundproofing in that particular room if they are going to have that many people in it. The food was okay. The service needs a bit of work. At one point, we had no silverware when the main course arrived at the table. Details matter...
