This is one of our favourite restaurants as the food is consistently great and the chef/owner, Pat Garland cares about the food and is tremendously generous within the community. His wine selection is both interesting and affordable. There is parking behind the restaurant or you can walk there in 15 minutes.

This is our go-to place for celebrations or if we just feel like being taken care of. The service is excellent and the food is consistent. The Cesare salad is the very best and they cook fish perfectly. It is pricey but worth it. They are also happy to accommodate special requests so you don't have to order off the menu. We recommend reservations so if you call say Jennifer & Billy sent you and they will take great care of you. Walk there in under 10 minutes or drive and take advantage of their free valet service.
