We had a great meal as we always do when we’re in town for a Sharks game or concert. We like hanging at the bar area and always have impeccable service. Definitely give it a try!! Yum!

The October menu yet another hit! The team there is so fun to watch as they prepare dishes. That is why we try to book counter seating. The beef and mushrooms are standouts and the add-ons of burgundy truffles and the surf and turf cassoulet (with scallops) are a bonus to be considered. The wine pairings were excellent and the service beyond professional and friendly.
