    wonderful experience at Gershwin's. I've wanted to try it for a couple years and finally had the opportunity. Gershwin's did not disappoint. Very friendly and professional staff, great atmosphere...a combination of elegant and earthy. Art Decco is the perfect touch. Nice to have quality live music. Excellent food and wine list. Looking forward to our next opportunity.
