Wonderful location. Great atmosphere and friendly and accommodating staff. Had the pleasure of having Michael as our server and he delivered above and beyond. Between food and wine recommendations, Michael made sure all our needs were met. The food was amazing as well as the cocktails.

The food is good, but with an extremely limited selection. Very meat-centric; vegetarian options are not on the menu. Another patron needed to inquire and have a vegetarian meal made special. I had the lobster carpaccio starter and sea bass main course. The prices are quite expensive and while the food is decent I do not believe it justifies the price. The atmosphere is a bit stuffy given the quality of the food. Waiters constantly removing things (like the bread (?!), glasses and plates). Anyways, I was disappointed after having heard positive things. There are much better options in the area. For 7 people and no alcohol the bill was well over $500 with tip. The restaurant is trying for a fine dining experience but just misses the mark IMHO. It seems they market themselves as a place to be used for impressing a date: expensive, small plates, and 'atmosphere.' Lastly, for beer afficianados, they have a grand total of 6 beers, none of which are of any consequence. Extensive wine list, however. One bottle was listed at $1400.

We ate here on Christmas day for an early dinner. Service and staff were polite and professional. Cocktails were very good, the preset menu had a nice selection of choices to choose from. The "blintz" was more like a springroll but was tasty. The elk/antelope was cooked as I ordered, medium rare, and the sides were complementary to the meat as a flavor combination. Desserts were good and wine list quality was very good, including by the glass. Usually by the glass selections are poor quality but not so here. Will return for sure.

Very nice place. It's a bit hard to find with a little construction nearby as the sign is quite small. The steps to the building are building are beautiful but a bit steep. The food was excellent and the wait staff was very attentive. The restaurant is pretty quiet and good for conversation. I was a bit frustrated by how hard our waiter pushed additional wine after we ordered a bottle. There was one small error on our desert order that was a quick fix. I'd recommend it for a nice business dinner or a high class date night.

Very good tasting menu. We got to try the lobster bisque with corn, tuna carpaccio with tomato, pork loin, bison steak, bread pudding and chocolate special. The bisque had a nice sherry flavor and the corn kernels were a good addition. The deserts were great.
