Food was excellent. The lobster ravioli had many different exciting flavors. Waitor was great. He know when to come in to help us or ask if we had any requests and he also knew when to let us have our conversation uninterrupted. The duck was delicious.

Great service and food and has been our favorite special occasion place. But $45 is an outrageous corkage fee…ended the evening on a real negative.
