    We gathered with friends that we hadn't seen for sometime. Mikayla, our waitress, was very accommodating and patient with us, her service was excellent! The food was very good, there was an ample variety of dishes for brunch, my favorite was the glazed salmon.

    The place was dim, intimate, and gorgeous. They were able to accommodate me with my dairy allergy. My only issue was that the server was definite that their calamari and bread did not contain dairy but I double checked with other staff and they both contained dairy. Luckily I did not have any of the bread nor did I order the calamari. I ordered their Halibut and it was absolutely delicious. My wife ordered their NY Strip and it did not disappoint. I would definitely recommend this place.
