Without a doubt, one of my favorite restaurants of all time. This contemporary, high-end bistro serves an amazing menu that changes weekly (I'm on the email mailing list) and has a good wine selection. I have literally never had a menu item here I have not enjoyed. One of my recent orders being a delicious pork chop that we asked the recipe for (and recreated at home). It is a bit pricey, but one of the few establishments that is actually well worth it. I purchased the cookbook Regina (the owner) has for sale and she came out to sign it for me. I make it a point to come here about monthly just to try some of her items because I enjoy them so much. She also recently opened up a take-out store, R2Go, which also serves great meals to go (again, a bit pricey, but it is extremely good). Definitely a neighborhood must-try if you are looking for a nice restaurant to dine in.

Absolutely wonderful. The food is excellent, well designed menu and very well executed. The service is always great and the wine list is well paired. It's definitely somewhere to eat as an independent alternative to some of the upscale downtown restaurants.

I have been here twice, and both times were simply excellent.
The first time I went, my girlfriend and I both had soups to start. I don't recall what hers was, but I had a hearty and delicious seafood chowder. For dinner, I had a unique egg taco dish and my girlfriend had a linguine with scallops. I thought the scallop dish was just okay, but my taco dish was phenomenal.
The second visit, my parents and I went and all three of us were just blown away by the food. My mom (a very picky eater) raved about her chicken with shaved green apples dish, and my dad and I enjoyed a lamb casserole. We started with spinach gnocchi, which was unlike anything I'd ever had before.
On both of my visits, I had the same server. His name eludes me, but he is a bigger guy with glasses. He gets an A+ for his personality, his knowledge of the menu, and his attentiveness. He really knows food and the restaurant business, and he gave great recommendations both times I was in. One of the best service experiences I've ever had.
Can't wait to go back.
