    No doubt one of the best values in this town. Food is always great. Cocktals are creative and adventerous. I have eaten here maybe 20 times and have yet to be disappointed. If you believe that Frank Stitt -- the chef/owner -- has talent, he displays it here with passion.

    Five stars for sure. An excellent staff that is very attentive. Everyone there was quite helpful, from the hostess to the bartender and the waitress.

    My date and I had heard great things about the food beforehand, but still, it exceeded our expectations. The bar waiter recommended a great French wine that we enjoyed with our bread and appetizers. That was followed by wonderful ribeye steaks and then an incredible coconut cake. Wow! You just have to taste it to believe it.

    The entire bill for the two of us including alcohol drinks, appetizers, entrees, desert and tips was under $100. We were well pleased.

    Note from a freind: If you order the chicken, remember that it will be dark meat (That's for all you white meat lover out there). But really everything on the menu is superb.

    Great spot: Always a pleasure to dine here. The service is excellent, the staff knowledgeable and the food is well prepared. The wine list is interesting and not over-priced. Great dinning spot!
