In Short – Gracefully refurbished, this 100-year-old spot is as lovely as the beautiful Silicon Valley types who call ahead to make reservations. The restaurant is romantic and upbeat, marrying the Victorian-style decor of the hardwood lobby with modern touches such as hand-blown glass chandeliers. This is where local chefs come to learn how to do New American cuisine right. The signature beet salad, steaks and sumptuous desserts are favorites on a menu that changes often.
Ellegant and delicous
by n_wilker
Yummy!!!!
We ate here on Saturday night! We had no problem getting a seat at around 8pm! I?m guessing the price point keeps the crowds down. The food was great, service was a little slow, but I think that is to be expected. This is a place where they expect you to make an evening of your meal.
We started with the smoked salmon. Very interesting presentation and of course super delicous!
Our eating partner started with a spicy peach cocktail, we went with out favorite vinyard ? Le?cole 41, but this time tried the cab. It was lovely! We enjoyed it quite a bit!
For our main meals we went with scallops for me and ruby red trout for hubby. Both were excellent!
For desert we tried the chocolate almond cake. Mmmmmm! Very very delicious!
All in all it was a very enjoyable dinner with very tasty food. We would recommend this place for a special event or a date night!
- Pros: Wonderful food, ellegant, good wine list
- Cons: Long dinner, expensive but tasty
great steak
by reviewum
I thought the food here was outstanding. the first time we came, we were treated as if we were lower than the waitor's life. we were very upset about that but the second time we went service was much better...oysters were good and the steak is delicious.. next time we will save room for dessert.
tasteless food
by ailin4190
Over priced and tasteless. I went here 3 years ago and it was good but ever since that one time, I've been there about 10 more times and they were all terrible. Food is nowhere near its value. Service is good but food is horrible. I don't know how they can still survive.
- Cons: food, overpriced, food
