Don't miss the beverage program, including the extensive wine list. The wine cellar is housed in a former bank vault in the basement.

    Food was crazy good- sea urchin butter black noodles… just one of many phenomenal new dishes. Bar seating was very cool with under-lighted counter. Service was friendly, efficient and timely. Venus and ambiance created a perfect mood. So happy I tried it out.

    This was our first visit and we had always heard wonderful things… it’s safe to say it went beyond our expectations. Every flavor was perfect: the cocktails, the pimento cheese, the chicken, the steak, the macaroni… perfection. We will be going back.
