    Our experience was phenomenal. The service, ambiance, drinks and every bite was exceptional. The patio outside was nice to hang out and grab a drink in as we arrived early. Our server(s) were friendly, very knowledgeable and prompt. They had great knowledge of potential allergens, as well as what wine to pair with each guests main dish. Outstanding food. The dry aged steak, sea food and even the bacon was fantastic. Thank you to everyone who made our meal unforgettable!

    The lounge is elegantly appointed in art deco designs. Comfortable and intimate seating. the dining room has preserved the old Princeton Post office. The magnificent mural and original wood frames snd panels are still in pristine condition. The food was really wonderful. The sauces for the filet & ribeye were superb. Unlike any other restaurant in town it is a calm atmosphere that is quiet enough to easily hear conversation with the one you’re with. We will definitely be back.
