Fantastic food. Fantastic service, wonderful table they gave us even though our party size changed down! We for sure will be back! Highly recommend the tuna appetizer, the bread and herb butter, the ribeye, the brussels sprouts, and the Panna Cotta!!

The food was plated so nicely. We had lunch and the calamari was delicious as was the hamburger. The garlic parmesan fries are the best! Try them! It was fairly busy when we were there but service was good and the food came out quickly. Perfect for our lunch hour!

Overall a great experience. Had a large party of 15. Only issue is one food order came out after pretty much everyone had finished or was close. Staff was nice, food was good, atmosphere was awesome.

Nice place at this Hilton boutique hotel. We came in for breakfast and the food had a very creative twist on basic breakfast staples. I had their corned beef hash which was delightfully unexpected. We would dine here again when we get a chance to visit the area again.

We had a family brunch/lunch, and our entrees were beautifully plated and delicious !!! The service was impeccable. We had a 15 month old with us and the server brought the toddler a cute little stuffed pony to keep her happy (nice touch !).

What a great experience - the food is creative but not over the top complicated and very good. The restaurant is quite large and was noisy but surprisingly we could still have a good conversation. Helped they didn't have (loud) music. Service was quite good and we met Gabriela as she was passing by our table and the server called her over. It was nice to compliment her in person for such an outstanding restaurant. she said they are starting brunch soon. There is a large covered patio that will be great when it gets a little warmer - dog friendly too.
