Update***Permanently Closed*** The food was great! Service was impeccable and they were VERY accommodating with my "pickiness". We enjoyed a very early dinner on Mother's Day, there were only two other families in the room so it was very quiet. We look forward to going back for Sunday Brunch!

We sat in the dining room away from the bar. Excellent food and service. We usually prefer sitting in the bar area but we chose a more quiet area for this dinner. We wanted to be able to have conversation without having to shout. Normally we like all the action and the noise in the bar area. I had the scallops on risotto and my husband had the filet. It's one of the best steaks on the island! The scallop/risotto dish was amazing - just a tad too salty. The owner of the restaurant stopped by at the beginning of our dinner and toward the end of our dinner to check on us. We had great service the entire time. We also love their hand crafted cocktail menu. This has become a regular go-to place for us.

The ambiance and service were great. The menu is a bit limited. I started with ceviche which was excellent. The salmon was so and so. The rainbow chard was incredibly salty!!! My friend had scallops and these were tender but also very salty. When I cook scallops I use clarified unsalted butter, so may be this chef used salted butter. The carrot was mainly a smear next to my salmon. I think there are some wrinkles to smooth out, but overall I would consider returning.

Claiming to only have one time available when making reservation, the place was nearly empty upon our arrival for our reserved. We understood that the limited brunch menu would be the only option for dining on Easter but after the waitress brought us our drinks and we proceeded to order, she then informed us of the options that were no longer available as they had "run out of the food". We found it interesting that they still served toast and eggs but could not serve French Toast any longer. The berry cup consisted of 1 strawberry but up into slices and a limited # of other berries. The eggs were questionable as to how "real" they were; the ones put on our plates were dry and stiff. One in our party of four had the bottomless mimosa; our server neglected us so much that it was difficult indulging in any additional glasses of the drink. The one slice of toast that was served with the meal was hard. The ambiance was less than elegant (think sports bar with sticky floors from the beer that had been spilled) and a small dining room on the side of this atmosphere for those who were seeking a "more quiet" meal. The quiet room was neglected by the server. When you order a chicken sandwich ($8.00) for brunch be aware; there are no sides. It is the chicken sandwich - no chips, no slaw, no nothing. The bloody mary was the only positive attribute of this dining experience. As you can tell, we had a disappointing Easter Sunday Brunch. The food was poor, the service was nearly nonexistent, and the atmosphere less than enjoyable.

We have dined at this establishment numerous times and are never disappointed. We usually eat at the bar but sat in the dining room since it was Easter brunch. Very pretty and distinctive rooms but the acoustics were very "echoy". The food as usual was excellent. The shrimp and grits were cooked perfectly (the shrimp was not overcooked) and the presentation and portion size was perfect. We are so happy to have this restaurant so close to home!

Our waiter did not know much about the menu. Limited menu and four of us all thought that the food was merely OK, but not memorable.

Upon entering the restaurant I was struck at how unattractive it was. There is absolutely no ambience, and the lack of color and anything on the walls made me think of a food court. No table cloths, just black tables and hard floors. Nothing to soften the noise level, even with so few people near us. The menu was extremely limited with only one meat offering, a ribeye served with no sides, and mediocre at best. Very disappointing return to a restaurant that was very good several years ago. They've gone too far in creating some nouveau abstract , stark setting.
