Well after reading some of the recent reviews I was a little skeptical about our dinner plans. Well it was great. Easy to find, parked right out front. The meal was execptional and the service was top notch. Yes it was the most expensive meal I ever had but the whole experence was worth it. You have to go there knowing the dinner for two will ...

Beautiful experience, food, service.
Due to a friends tenacity we finally acquired reservations. Despite what other reviewers have posted, I found the service unpretentious, and very accomodating.

I wouldn't consider myself a "foodie" (chevy's mexican is usually just fine by me!), but couldn't turn down the invitation to check out this joint. It was absolutely outrageous - everything from the lighting and china to the food and service. I went the vegitarian route (yeah, i'm a chicken), and even had the meat-eaters ...

This place was by far the best dining experience I have ever had. The service was the best. The food was the best. The wine was the best. I would recommend the 9 course chef's tasting menu. Everything is prepared with skill and precision.
