Beautiful restaurant. Food was good- was a little disappointed with my pasta dish, but everything else was very good. The brioche side was delicious and the s'mores trifle was to die for.

The food and service at the bar were amazing! Our bartender was friendly and attentive and made excellent recommendations. The food was delicious and the kitchen split a salad we were sharing for us.

Very rude service. Had one beer at the bar prior to dinner, they refused to service a glass of wine. Felt very misunderstood and not respected. Manager refused to take ownership or provide any resolution.
