These people love the experience they're giving you, and it's a crying shame they're going out of business. The food, the pairings, and the cocktails are all top notch. They also do all kinds of cool stuff in house, including aging tuna, distilling interesting liquors, etc.

Food is a-mazing, service extraordinary and they have such a good wine selection. We took our clients for a private dinner and we all enjoyed so much.!

You'll be missed.
