Making a reservation was easy. Arriving early and asking to be seated - not so much. I'm not sure if it was the hostess policy or just the hostess herself, but when I make a reservation for a business dinner for 9 people, I don't understand why you'd make us wait until everyone arrives to be seated. You can assume we'll spend a few hundred dollars and it seems that seating us sooner is in everyone's best interest.
Now to the dining experience...our waiter was great. The food was also delicious. The drinks were strong. The prices were reasonable (for a nicer restaurant). The ambiance was quiet and quaint. I'd go back, but probably not with a reservation so I wouldn't have to deal with the hostess issue again.
