    We were celebrating our 47th anniversary and were greeted with bubbly after sitting down. Attentive service and great tasting food. Wine choice by the glass was good with the prices being reasonable. We enjoyed our dinner very much and will definitely be back!

    OMG we ate and drank so much but everything was soooo good! The complimentary bread melts in your mouth and the French onion soup had the perfect combination of cheese, onions, bread & broth. Had petite filets with the lyonnaise potatoes while drinking Mumm’s sparkling (my family’s favorite champagne). Finished it off with bread pudding topped with vanilla Hagen Daz ice cream. A wonderful birthday dinner for my husband!
