on Citysearch Dec 01, 2008I wish this place was better. The ingredients are fresh and the dishes tasty, but everything is overpriced and not special enough to bring you back. The atmosphere skirts both fancy and cozy.... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 08, 2008This reastaurant is over-priced, pretentious and just not that good. The portion size is laughable relative to their prices and the menu is anemic. I would not recommend this place to anyone. The food itself was good... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 06, 2008Was taken there by my gf for my birthday March 29th having read the reviews. As we concluded our meal we commented on what a pleasant surprise it was and how the portions were NOT puny. We did find that the two of us were... (more)
