The Scene – A covered and heated patio opens to a dimly lit dining room and bar with widescreen TVs at this bustling spot. To the right is a black baby grand that gets tinkled every Tuesday through Sunday by local jazz artists. The vibe is art deco with black wood lining the ceiling, exposed brick and oversized modern portraiture. In the back, a private dining area can hold up to 30 people upon reservation. – – The Food – Though the pricey menu promises otherwise, this food is adequate at best with the exception of a few plates. Crab cakes were moist to perfection and…

Waited too long just to be dissapointed

My friends recommended this place and by the looks of the other reviews other people seem satisfied. On the other hand I was not, the most impressive thing to me was how fast the valets retrieved the car, very nice!! Upon walking in there was no one at the hostess stand (more waiting). We were then informed that there is a 45 min wait it was 8:30 on a Friday; that would of been understandable except for the fact the place was half empty. The music is nice but very loud. We ordered calimari for a starter it was bland and greasy but at least not chewy. My dining companions orded crab claws,tasty but half of them were too soaked in butter to be eaten. The other ordered veal which he was satisfied with I ordered a chicken dish with angel hair, veggies, and parmesean sauce. I was very disspointed there was barely any sauce on it when everyone elses had plently. The chicken was very dry and bland. This dish was a major 18 dollar miss. After the plates were cleared there was about a 20 minute absence of our waitress and then we waited even longer for change. My suggestion, go to Olive Garden you will pay less and be actually full when you leave.
- Pros: The valets are superb!
- Cons: Food and service
Cool Atmosphere...but loud!!

The ambience was great. When my husband and I drove up we were ooohing and ahhhing at the site of it. It's so nicely lit up...and the patio looked so inviting. And it really was, until we stepped inside. We soon discovered that we were screaming at each other, because the music was soooo loud. The inside of the restaurant is very nice and dimly lighted, but the blasting saxaphone and piano was very distracting. I can see where they can get the idea that it's romantic, but this is really a restaurant that you take a group of people to. My husband and I requested to sit outside on the patio, and it made it bearable. Everything else was great...they have a great selection of imported beers and the food is very tasty.
