I have loved this place for many many years, from when it was at its peak to when it was at its worse and back up again. I'm so glad this place was not demolished and that someone had the foresight to buy it and restore it. Today I went with a friend for a drink at the bar. Service was excellent, the surroundings are lovely, the drinks were good and the charcuterie appetizer we shared was an interesting mix of cold cuts and cheeses along with some nuts and dates. And it was quiet. I hate noisy restaurants and bars where you can't have a decent conversation with the person you are with. We were there early but it did start to fill up well before we left and the noise level still remained low. This is a lovely, romantic place and I highly recommend it.
