Rating: 4**** Overall Experience: Very good. Atmosphere: Warm, inviting, intimate. Service: Pleasant, efficient, didn't appreciate server placing bill on table while still enjoying dessert and wine in bottle to drink, we sat for about 45 minutes with the bill. Menu items: Something to please everyone, great selection of European ingredients. Food Presentation: Generous portions, nicely presented. Food Prices: Reasonable and appropriate for this calibre of restaurant. Alcohol: Wine and beer. Wine Selection: Good selection. Beer also available. Wine Prices: Reasonable. How many were seated at your table? 2 Do they accept reservations? Yes Credit Cards accepted? Yes Recommendations: Wait staff could be a little more engaged with customers. Do not deliver bill until after the entire meal has been completed and table cleared of dishes. While all of the food items were delicious, a little more color on the plates would have livened things up.
