Went with a party of four on a busy weekend. Although the restaurant was full on arrival and throughout our meal, we never felt rushed and the pace of the meal was perfect. All of us had something different for appetizer/entree and everything we tried was outstanding. All of us have eaten out frequently in the US -2 are particular ""foodie snobs"" so our standards are high. \r
I would recommed the duck entree and appetizer, the squash soup, the sea bass and the pork chop. I would typically never order a pork chop at a restaurant but this was well flavored, moist and paired well with the accompanying dishes. Definitely high end ingredients handled well. We had a mixup on wine ordering- I ordered a St. Rita location for a Pinot but there were actually 2 on the list- one $25 more per bottle than the one I ordered. I didn't recognize the name when the wine came but the waiter showed me the vineyard so we drank it and ordered another. When we got the bill, I questioned the pricing and we (the server & I) discovered the mistake. They changed the bill and apologized for the error with no questions asked. Refused my offer to split the difference. OK, probably the ""right "" thing to do but still the mark of a place that knows what they are doing. It only reinforced my overall impression that this place is professionally staffed in front and in back. Well worth the money.
