I visited this location to celebrate my birthday for lunch. I was greeted with a Happy Birthday, and each server continued to wish me well on my day. There is a definite ambience and attention to detail here. From the table cloths that are steam-ironed when being changed, a dated leather bound menu, skylight, sleek and simple interior design, fireplaces, minimal artwork in main dining room, you feel very comfortable and welcome. Excellent service, staff very polite and informed about the California cuisine menu. If you are confused about any ingredient, the server is more than happy to help and make recommendations. We chose Steamed Casco Bay Cod, Jasmine Rice and Sweet Soy and Grilled Veal Cop, Black Garlic. The fish was fresh and quite tasty; the bok choy and lotus root was perfect balance with other seasonings. The veal was tender and cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of lemon. On your birthday, you receive a beautifully presented chocolate ball with dark chocolate ice cream, fresh raspberry and cookie crumbs. Perfect end to meal. I was pleased with my experience and the ambience. I will return to try the dinner menu in the future. There is street parking in the area, but at times can be difficult to find something close, depending on the time of day and day of the week. Weekends are busy. Recommend using valet, and making a reservation if time is an issue. However, there is there is a comfortable lounge to wait should you have to wait.
