    Went for lunch. Service is very good. Top notch. But the food was bleh. Soup du jour was very tasty. And was smelling so good but the Chinese chicken salad was kind of gross. Price are a little too high regarding quality of the salad. Will not go again.

    Really solid. Upscale without being pretentious. The seafood had lots of flavor. It couldn’t have been better.
