Six of us were there on a Tuesday night. We waited for a table for 5 minutes. Waiter was very attentive and enthusiastic. Menu is extensive, I had salmon on a cedar plank, it was excellent. Presentation of food is beautiful as the interior decoration. Waiter appeared genuinely proud of what he was serving. Excellent choice. more
