Hello - this is SO not much of an answer. I've walked in and sat down at dinner and looked at the menu, but not eaten there yet. We saw that the dinner was pricey, mostly meat, and the sides in addition to the meat were extra. We were looking for more inexpensive food with a vegetarian option so we split. However, I haven't been there at lunch yet. AND I live right here so I can tell you the parking lot is ALWAYS. FULL. It must be for a good reason!

Well, we finally took the plunge. Gwynne, you're right: It's pretty pricey at dinner. I'm not sure that a restaurant in this location can afford to charge a la carte prices; I think most of its business will probably be from residents in the area, not people looking to drive any distance for an expensive meal out.

That said, the service was attentive; presentation was lovely; and the portion size adequate--neither overly large nor minuscule, as I've seen at some trendy places. My husband had the lobster ravioli, and I had a menu special of penne pasta, scallops, and shrimp. He ordered a side of creamed spinach. All the dishes were tasty. We were disappointed by a rather lackluster bread as an appetizer, though.

Did I mention pricey? :-) For the two of us--no alcohol, merely sparkling water and a soda--dinner was over $60. We probably will not return for dinner. Lunch might be a better option.
