    We went for our anniversary dinner on a Thursday night. The place is enchanting - a beautiful home converted into a charming restaurant with lovely garden seating in front. It was very chilly and windy so we opted for indoors. Food was delicious!! We had ahi tuna poke and calamari for starters, and the short rib and halibut as our entrees. The tuna poke, calamari and short rib were spectacular. Excellent portion sizes, and the short rib was fork tender. The cherry on top - superb service from our waiter, Rene. He was attentive, charming and and focused throughout our visit. We also got a delicious lemon tart for dessert. We most definitely will be back.

    This charming restaurant had it all. Fantastic service, wonderful menu and specials. The oysters were exquisite, the Brie was amazing. The salads were thoughtful, beautifully presented and delicious. The entree sole was perfectly cooked with an incredible sauce, served with asparagus and lovely potato puree. We also tried the cake with raspberries, fresh, yummy and ample! The rose wine was delicious. Music, soft lights, in the outdoor patio felt like a night in Paris. The chef and owner was very welcoming and attentive. This might be my new favorite restaurant!
