2 weeks agoDuck and pork saltimboca were overcooked. Beet and Caesar salad were not good. Wine was good, our server was great, friendly, and attentive. Creme brûlée and oat cake were good. Cappuccino was watered down and served lukewarm. Classic charcuterie board was good but needs to have cheese. Overall it was over priced for the quality.
