Hands down the best dinner out in years. Amazing service, great drinks, delicious food. The filet is to die for, chicken pesto goat cheese salad was great, risotto yum. Desserts too! Perfect!

Great selection of beers and wines . The tables by the window are nice. Overall, the food is good and it's a very relaxed type of environment.

Salmon in Thai Curry Sauce was one of my favourite salmon dishes ever. What a great find on our first visit to the UK. Perfect choice.

The ahi is the best I've ever had! The veggie soup is also great. As far as the pizzas , the BBQ chicken one was good.

Max August

The food is great ... Tiger prawn pizza with the sea food salad was perfect to share ... My friend had a filet and he said it was one of the best he's ever had.

Charles Erdman

Bacon wrapped tiger shrimp ... Yum. Dessert ? Chocolate pecan pie hits the spot. Wonderful "French" atmosphere.

Jill Wolf

Flat iron steak , fresh pasta with tiger shrimp prawns , creme brulee . Yum.

Food is fine and solid even if the menu and style is stuck in the 90’s. Big menu with lots of choices, but the service can be off.

The meats are great in here! Follow the waiters advertise about the meat. No need for well done in here!

Don’t let the name fool you. Yes, the wine menu is incredible, but so are the signature cocktails! Make sure to try the Blood Orange Margarita for a refreshing summer sip. - Visit Santa Barbara

We popped in for lunch with a friend and loved this small friendly restaurant. The mouthwatering selection of cakes was beyond our capacity after such lunch, but will give us another reason to return! - Mina Haney

Fantastic ice cream. Each of us tried a different flavor and all were exceptional. Note: a scoop is BIG. We saw the flight option too late: 3 mini-scoops of 3 different flavors... DO THAT! - Doug Baer

Best venue, sound is wonderful and the scenery is amazing at the top. Very cozy seating, so if you are a bit on the heavier side it may be worth getting another seat to be comfy. - Esti Marie
