a gem.... this is my go-to place when entertaining guests or recommending to people from out of town . it consistently impresses with the quality, variety of menu items and atmosphere, particularly in the sofa/martini lounge upstairs.
the happy hour bar specials have been mentioned and are worth visiting for, although i have noticed the escargot have been removed from the specials menu. they are worth trying anyway, we can't go without getting at least one order (make sure to ask for extra bread to sop up the leftover cream and garlic sauce they come swimming in) the waterzoii is also a must try, with a generous portion of fresh tasting seafood cooked expertly in a light cream and white wine reduction. the scallops are huge and tender and sweet! the prices are not as expensive as one would expect for the quality, presentation and portion size.
you can tell that the owners and staff really do care about your experience, which is especially rare for a downtown restaurant in my oppinion. lovely low lit atmosphere a stones throw from the river, perfect for lingering over the beautifully prepared meals. will be back again and again!
