Your Review: This was an excellent restaurant, with wonderful food, service, ambience,
etc. The rack of lamb was truly excellent, as were the appetizers (I had a superbe lobster
bisque) and the desserts. The desserts alone are worth a visit. One of the top restaurants
in Orange County, and very popular with local businessmen at lunch.

Your Review: The
entire experience was wonderful. I would have to say that the staff was very
attentive and had a sense of humor. The wine list was unending with excellent
selections. Food preperation and presentation was outstanding.
This is now my #1 choice in Orange County.

restaurant review: I was refused courteous service. I had made an impromptu
dinner reservation for 8:00, but appeared with my dinner companion an
hour early. Since the restaurant was mostly empty, with free tables evident
in all parts of the restaurant viewable from the front desk, I asked to
enjoy my dinner reservation early. I was told to eat at the bar. Incredible.
The front desk hostess, Candy, was anything, but sweet. If not for my
gracious dinner guest, I would have surely demanded an immediate reprimand
for her from the on-duty manager. I regret that I did not expess my displeasure
that night. I did write letters of complaint and sent several to the managers
of the restaurant. I have received no reply as of 11 December 1999.
