    Our group of seven was genuinely impressed by both the service and the quality of the food. As a fine dining establishment, it delivered on every level; elegant service, beautifully presented dishes, and a great atmosphere. The pricing of every dish for lunch was very reasonable and each dish had a homemade touch, fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. A Special thank you for the warm hospitality to Amanda our server you went above and beyond. We will be back before we leave for Canada!
