Our server Kiki was fantastic! We shared the Caesar salad, mushroom chicken risotto was incredible, and the ribeye was delicious too! We also took home the bread pudding dessert - yum! The restaurant itself is decorated nicely but was quite cool in temperature. The outdoor area is also lovely and of the heaters were on, would have been a fantastic option to watch the sunset.
