I like the folks who work here, the food, particularly the Mediterranean salad mix is delicious, and they have a fine wine selection. The waiter had the knowledge to ask me if I wanted drier or a more buttery chardonnay. Good ask.

Reservations via OpenTable worked like a charm. Staff were friendly & attentive. Food arrived reasonably quick, was hot well presented.
Ribeyes were cooked to order & delicious.
A little pricey, not for the budget diner.
