“Pure Perfection"

Soft, classic jazz infiltrates the dining rooms and contributes to the romantic atmosphere. The dishes we tried were pure perfection: we had the tomato bisque, persimmon salad, the beef brisket, and the grilled octopus ...which is out of this world. There’s a nice wine list to choose from so you’ll find the perfect accompaniment to your meal. We will take the grown kids with us next time: they’ll appreciate the sophisticated menu and remarkable flavors.
