We tried to go to a nearby fancy place without a reservation on a sunday evening and was shooed away by the hostess... so we settled for this place instead. This place was spectacular, very pretty, almost empty, with attentive service and good 3 course meal specials. and BYOB. The server directed us to a nearby liquor store still open and viola dinner was saved. Food was decent. I was surprised at the generosity of the helpings (I got a ton of mussels) and the lack of a byob fee. They even helped call us a cab afterwards. This place is a gem.
