Went in on a rainy night and the atmosphere was perfect! Not too busy and very quiet dining for the night before Valentines. They had that evening a Valentines dinner for two and so we decided to go with the option. We enjoyed the Salmon Fresca and the Lobster and Shrimp fettuccine and both dishes were absolutely superb. Salmon was perfectly grilled and the vegetables were seasoned perfectly also, everything merried very well together. The bread was delicious and the cheesecake was the best I ever tasted with that vanillas caramel sauce!
Also there signature cocktails were made equally delicious. Would totally recommend!

Food was great, service was constantly attentive, and several times they were checking others for drink and such. Food was great, and the valetines day was wonderful. The old fashioned was just not my liking, makers mark probably isnt for me. The place seemed quite well run and food was delivered with nice timing. There even seemed to be soft music in the background that didnt hurt conversation volume. Lovely place.

Service was good.. would be great if I was offered a different entree when I told the waitress I didn't like it. The ambiance was great. The pasta was so heavy. Very pasta-y. Something I feel I could have made at home, but some people love a big bowl of noodles 🙂. It won't be my first choice for an expensive pricy dinner but it won't be my last either with its ambiance and complimentary dessert for birthdays.
