This is a beautiful restaurant that consists of two floors, open in the middle for great views of the downstairs. I really love the open quality. We used valet parking ($8) and had our coats checked by the hostess. We were seated downstairs at a table for 2 in the middle of the restaurant. Tables are spaced out well enough that you aren't on top of the other patrons and the noise level isn't out of control.
Our waiter and all other staff were attentive and knowledgeable. We started with the shrimp and crab cocktail and the focaccia bread that was brought to the table. Both were delicious and we could have eaten lots more of both. I had the cod chowder which was really decadent and delicious, great savory flavor. My friend had the Caesar salad which also looked good and fresh. Our chosen entrees were the pork chop and the bavette steak. The pork chop was met with rave reviews, the steak had great flavor and was cooked as asked but was extremely chewy. For dessert we tried the cheesecake, the bee sting cake and the salted peanut tart. All were excellent but the stand out was the bee sting cake. Baked in a crock and drizzled with some type of sauce this would be something I would every time I ate there.
