What went well? Well, everything actually. Quality, modesty, price, ambience, location, service, afterglow, wine, sauces, lunch sandwiches. Authenticity. A few too many federal judges on occasion - oh well, you can't have everything. read more

This is a great spot if you want a fancy French restaurant- tablecloths, candlelight, very European. We came here for restaurant week and enjoyed a variety of items from their restaurant menu. Notably, we enjoyed the Canadian wapiti and the filet mignon tournedos. Awesome & attentive service! read more

My friends and I came here for Restaurant Week. Some were visiting for a second year in a row! It was busy to the point where we had to wait an extra 20-30 minutes to get seated for our reservation. Ultimately we were seated outside by heat lamps and enjoyed our dinner in the dim, somewhat romantic lighting. I loved my three-course selection of Country Pate, Canadian Wapiti, and Creme Brûlée. Everything was delicious and well-balanced. The Wapiti was definitely the best part. Solid Restaurant Week pick by my friends and would be a great date night spot anytime. Interesting to see how mixed the reviews are, though! read more

Had an absolutely spectacular meal at Atelier a few days back! Was so amazing I forgot to take pix! So I guess you will just have to take my word for it: Atelier's still is rockin' it after all these years. Check it out when you're in the neighborhood (or even you're not!). read more

We came here for restaurant week and was not impressed. The upselling here for what they are serving and the portion sizes are a rip off. There is 20% gratuity and another sustainability fee added to your check. You will end up paying nearly $30 extra including tax for your meal. It's too expensive for what it is. read more

The service was very slow and took 2 hours for us while others were more catered too and got in and out while we were still there. The food was ok nothing to rave about. We will not go back. way too expensive as well. Not recommended. They added into the tab things without us knowing. Like what we would expect to not have been charged. I don't like that behavior. Just tell us hey there is an extra dollar for that napkin roll salt whatever. read more

Checked this out for restaurant week. It can be easy to walk past but yes, it's there somewhere! I chose: tartare, wapiti (elk), and berries for my courses. The tartare was like, tangy. Almost like a salad that has a bit too much dressing on it. I've had tartare in Paris, so, I know the real deal. The elk was coated in a sauce that was (again) tangy, I'm kind of curious how it tastes without all the sauce. I don't get sauce on my steak, either. The meat was much softer than steak and lean. My chosen side was polenta and it was alright. I honestly have a really good Youtube video of a recipe and it's really really good and simple, too. The berries dessert was nothing but a few berries and some whipped cream. I was expecting something a bit more exciting given the prices at this place and how bougie they seem to be. I just don't get missed opportunities like this. I can go to a grocery store and get berries & whipped cream. It's just stupid to decided to serve something so basic and low effort in a high-end restaurant. Plus the blueberries were SO sour I couldn't even eat them. I'm shocked a vodka soda (no brand requested so it should have been the house vodka) was $16.50. Are you kidding me? When I was talking to a friend at the table about perhaps asking for a taste of two wines she was contemplating, the server seemed to get pissed off about that. Not only is this ok for customers to do, I ask for tastes in much more basic restaurants than this place, so why would an overpriced restaurant like this have a problem. I'm quite taken back by that and really didn't appreciate that choice of attitude. Oh and the 20% gratuity is already added, so it's not like she had to earn it, which is part of my problem with adding the tip. Now I can't choose what I feel is fair based on their service. My total ended up being $125 all-in for an average meal. Won't be on rotation for me. read more

I had been extremely excited about visiting this spot with driends. We ordered a Rioja which was splendind. The escargot appetizer was absolutely beautiful. It wasn't over-seasoned or covered in cheese, so you can actually taste the earthy flavors of the dish. We also got some smoked salmon and it was quite delightful. The entres we ordered were the Lamb, filet minot and chicken. The filet minot was wonderful! But the lamb I ordered was a wee over-cooked. The sauces on top were a little overwhelming and the lamb flavor was lost. The foie gras also did not meet my expectations. Our server, Krsitine, was very attentive and our glasses were never empty. I think next time I visit, I'll have the sauces of the meats on the side. read more

Went here for restaurant week. The appetizers (pate and carpaccio) were great. The entrees were a little disappointing- the ravioli seemed undercooked and the filling was just okay.

I ALMOST feel bad rating this place badly after 1 pre-fixe wine-pairing dinner with a winery that was largely responsible for the bad experience -- but it is what it is. For $150/pp, we got pretentious down-the-nose looks, the shortest pours I've ever seen at a wine event, sales pitches to buy more wine, and zero interaction with the wine reps (who were eating dinner together with the chef at their own table the whole time -- didn't speak to them once). I go to winery-sponsored dinners all the time, and this one was the most disappointing and least enjoyable. Stags Leap Cellars -- if you're wondering about the winery. The food was good, but nothing special. The chef may be "famous" and a Denver "institution" -- but I can see why none of my food blogger, influencer, or frequent diner friends have even heard of this place. Judging by the age of most of the guests, you gotta be part of the long-standing "in" crowd to come here. The only thing that saved the evening was the heartfelt, committed service of the restaurant staff itself -- or this would be 1 star. read more

4.5. Came by for dinner during Restaurant Week and overall had a lovely meal. Service was a bit rushed, but that was understandable given the big crowd. We both got the lobster ravioli for the appetizer course and it was really tasty -- just wish there were more than one ravioli! For mains, I got the salmon with caper beurre blanc and my SO got the bouillabaisse. I loved the salmon! Not fishy at all, tons of flavor, and the lentils were delicious. I didn't try his bouillabaisse (allergy), but he said it was pretty good. For dessert we went with the tiramisu and the lemon zest cheesecake. The tiramisu was amazing. The cheesecake was very non traditional and unique. We also finished about three bread baskets and the house red. Those bread baskets were a game changer and allowed us to leave feeling full. We were seated at a table near the counter and a staff member working behind the counter, on multiple occasions, was staring at us, listening to our conversation, and then interjecting. The first time it just seemed friendly, and then it got strange. It was quite uncomfortable and put a damper on the overall ambiance. Besides that, I enjoyed the setting and the charm of the restaurant! read more

We went here last weekend and were pleasantly surprised by the food and atmosphere. Great service, bistro-style restaurant, not formal but cozy and intimate. I think will be great in the summer when they can open it up for al fresco dining. The food: The foie brulee was basically a torchon on top of the brioche with a pairing of cooked berries. The pairing was very sweet and didn't have any acid, it was more for french toast than foie, there was also way too much of it and it overpowered the dish. The brioche was very dry by itself. The sardines were a great dish, bright, fun, great pairings on the dish, perhaps too many things on there. I think the sardines were lost in all the other things going on. For the entrees, we got scallops and elk. The scallops were nicely cooked but swimming in sauce, it was too much. The lentils were nice and there were a few tiny asparagus stalks. Overall plating was messy and amateurish, it took over the whole plate rather than being tight, clean, and composed. The elk was cut into thin pieces rather than a fillet, it was swimming in sauce, again way too much and the plate was messy. Overall, we had a great time, nice wine, and an after-dinner cocktail. I wish the cooking was a bit more refined. read more

I really wanted to like this place. I love French cuisine and was surprised on a week night to be taken here. The first thing to note is that there is no parking. Not a huge deal because we were able to find street parking but if it's a busy night you may end up having to park a few blocks away in a residential area. The restaurant had a little outdoor covered patio with a heater so it wasn't too cold in the restaurant when people went in and out. There were many tables, so the reservations we got were probably unnecessary, but it was the only French restaurant open on a Monday night. We waited just a few minutes before our server had us sit in a table. It was a cute venue with copper pots decorating the walls. The service was not good. The waiter would not stay at the table long enough for us to order. He was really short with us and wouldn't wait for me to speak. We looked for a drink and start asking questions about the specials and out waiter disappeared. He came back with a chalk board with the day's specials. I didn't think we needed the visual and he could have just told us the specials, but no big deal. We ordered drinks and appetizers and the. He ran off. We were ready to order everything but he didn't give us more than one second and he was gone. He came back with our apps, However my salad order was wrong but he corrected it quickly. When he came back with my salad (no cheese this time) he finally let us order the entrees. I'll be honest, I love lamb and it was terrible. It was way too salty. The brown glaze was overpowering. The lamb was charred on the outside and tasted bitter but cooked perfectly to medium rare on the inside. The meat itself was good. It was just too salty. My husband ordered the pork and it had the same brown sauce and it was also too salty with a cheese slice melted on top. He came to check on us for less than a minute and was gone for pretty much the rest of the night. We had to flag him down for a check and to give him our credit card. Honestly the star of the night was the mussel appetizer. It had a delicious curry flavored sauce and was unexpectedly creamy. It was perfect with some of the burnt bread slices. I also really enjoyed the beet salad with fresh berries. It was delicious. However by the end of the meal we had to leave quickly to go run an errand and our waiter was chatting it up with the kitchen staff that was busy cleaning for the night. It really isn't an experience I would want to repeat again. The food was not the caliber I was expecting for a French restaurant with such high reviews. read more

I'm already planning my return to this wonderful restaurant! I tried their food with a friend for restaurant week and was amazed by the quality, portions, service, and overall value.

Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a quality French dining experience during restaurant week. There are plenty of other restaurants in the area that offer better food portions and offerings. Our group of 8 partakes in several locations during restaurant week.

The food is good, it's clear there are talented chefs here. read more

Wonderful French inspired dinner at Atelier. My parents are regulars to this restaurant and I finally tried it tonight for the first time. The atmosphere was casual yet classy, and the service was friendly and attentive. We split the mussels as an appetizer and ordered meats for the main. The mussels were delicious in a savory garlicky tomato broth, which paired perfectly with the delicious bread. For the mains, we tried the elk, lamb chops and pork chop special. All three were served with broccoli rabe, kale and a starch (potato gratin or grits). Of the three, I was most impressed by the Colorado lamb chop, I felt the pork and elk were a bit on the salty side (maybe because of the demi glace?). We concluded the meal with coffee and warm chocolate cake. Overall a terrific meal that I would definitely try again. read more

I was so excited to hear my husband had reservations here for my birthday after knowing how much I wanted to eat here. It has been on my list of restaurants I wanted to eat at for years. We walked in on windy Wednesday, on the news said there were hurricane force winds that went up to 100 mph in some areas. We walked into a nearly empty restaurant where we were told our seats were outside because all the reservations were taken. When we said we had reservations and arrived a half hour early, we were firmly told all the tables were taken. They sat us in the corner, closest to the heat lamp where our server turned it on and said this was the best she could do. While the outdoor seating area was covered with a weighted tarp, it wasn't one that could zip or keep the wind out so all the dirt and leaves blew in with every wind gust. The 15 minutes we sat there looking at the menu in the dim lighting, there was already an ankle high pile of leaves by our feet while the wind kept smashing the tarp into the building causing a loud clashing noise of metal. The people who would walk in after us, and still got a table inside, gasped in fear at the loud noises every-time the tarp smashed into the building. When we told our server that people who came after us got tables inside, but asked why we were seated outside, she simply said "you can go somewhere else if you like." Had we not been in the middle of a pandemic and restaurants accepted walk ins, this is where we would have left. However, booking this reservation weeks out, there were no same day reservations available anywhere. Our server comes out again and said she found a table for us and eventually moved us inside. What an awful start of an experience! But once we got situated and ordered, we were having a better experience. The food was phenomenal! We ordered a couple appetizers like the escargot, the veal tenderloin for dinner and everything was cooked to perfection. The portions were decent, the meat was tender, each dish was so flavorful, and I couldn't say enough good things about the food. Honestly, it was one the best meals I've had. Unfortunately, the rude service we had inside, which we had a different server inside, and our experience when we arrived, took away from our overall positive experience here. When you're going to a nicer restaurant you're wanting great food AND great service and I cannot say I found both here. read more

Since it opened in 2017, I have been wanting to have a meal (lunch or dinner) at Radex. Last night my boyfriend said he had a surprise and he didn't know I have been secretly pining Radex...well he took me! From the minute you walk in this small but stylish restaurant you are immersed in French cuisine. It reminds me of the small country French restaurants of the south of France. The staff all but one speak French and their smiles are warm and welcoming. Copper copper copper everywhere from the display of cooking pans pots on the wall to the wrap of the bar for the open kitchen to a wrap on the cooking hood and even your check is served covered in copper. Martha Stewart would be drooling over the use of copper and Bar Keepers Friend would be raking in the $$. Our physical tabletop was made of wooden wine crates...fun stylish and so French. Service impeccable...not a moment of failure. On top of it, not pushy not rushed. Wine decadent and like nectar from heaven. We had the beet salad, foie gras special with berries on toast points, Canadian elk and my beloved filet mingon tartare. Manifique!!!! Everything was cooked expertly, ingredients like they were just plucked from the wilderness. The last tartare I had was at the Hotel Majestic in Cannes 27 years ago and this rendition was everything and more...sinfully tasty meat, briney capers, quail egg. In true French fashion, the menu has some interesting titles to dishes. It's a bit political it's a bit cheeky but it's simply divine. They serve the bananas Foster smoked in this gigantic venetian glass decanter. The owner is hands on and even sits amongst the patrons. At one point a couple quite young who had spent significant time drinking endless bottles of wine had gotten up to leave. The young lady forgot her purse. The owner bellows as we all clamor to say hey you forgot your purse, "It's okay she will be back tomorrow." The restaurant erupts in laughter. The young lady then realizes and rushes back into the restaurant to retrieve her purse. Now the owner stands and starts applauding profusely and the restaurant erupts in applause. This restaurant might hold 40 people. It frequently has wine dinners. Sadly we missed a Charles Krug wine dinner which for $125 you have 4 or 5 courses paired with wines and a member of the Mondavi family speaking... read more

Disappointed that a wine dinner advertised at $125 pp ends up costing over $200 pp once taxes (understandable), a steep service charge and a mandatory 20% tip are added. What would be a somewhat affordable evening for people becomes completely overpriced. Please advertise the total price of these events so that it's not misleading. Also include service charges in the price, and let people tip what they feel is deserved. Service charges are part of your cost of running the restaurant and should be included in the meal/event price rather than being tacked on at the end of a meal. It's a sneaky and deceptive practice. read more

Possibly the best beef tartare in town. We went for a date on a Friday night and Atelier's ambiance made for a very romantic evening. Fresh-made bread, great wine list, and variety of the menu are all things that will keep this place on the top of my list. Our server was knowledgeable and made some great recommendations given that I have food allergies. We capped off our evening with a chocolate lava cake that wasn't over sweetened and maintained the subtle earthiness that make chocolate chocolate. read more

A friend introduced me to this restaurant. I can't believe I never knew about it before. Don't hesitate to dine here! The food is some of the best I have ever had in my life. I recommend the Smoked Scottish Salmon, yummy and delightful presentation. Their signature dish, the Lobster Ravioli, is out of this world. The staff is friendly and kind. This is now our go-to restaurant for special occasions. read more

// Summary Wonderful service that far surpasses the quality of food - hopefully it was just an off-day. // Experience Came here for a date, where we ordered the smoked scottish salmon, the chicken (poulet marsala), and a scallop dish that was a special for the evening. The salmon was excellent. My date didn't particularly like the chicken, saying it was over-cooked, and I thought the scallops were slightly over-cooked. We did end the night with a decent tiramisu, so you know, it could be worse than 2/4 dishes. // Service Our waitress was excellent. She was very energetic and extremely helpful. While we were deciding between desserts, she whispered that one of them wasn't particularly good and urged us the other direction. Gotta love that honesty and her looking out for the diners! // Ambiance The place is pretty cool - they have a collection of some copper pots and pans along a wall, and other nice decorative touches. The tables are pretty close together, but I feel like you'd expect that coming to a place like this. // Convenience Pretty close to City Park. It was relatively easy to find parking nearby on the side streets. read more

Met a good friend there for dinner. The sauces are excellent, the service is pretty excellent, and their sense of urgency is non-existent. Escargot was wonderful. The Panier de Diable was delicious, especially soaking the sauce up with that stellar bread. King Crab au Gratin was pretty good. The Raviolis de Homard were atrocious, completely under-cooked and impossible to eat. One is supposed to be able to cut pasta with a fork. I slid one of the raviolis onto my plate, poured on a little Champagne beurre blanc and tried to cut a bit of the pasta for a bite. It was hard as a rock, not al-dente, but hard as a rock. The waiter was surprised and offered to bring another order. We agreed, and the newly cooked Lobster Raviolis came on a new plate with new beurre blanc. I cut into the pasta again and it was just as terrible as the first order - hard as a rock. It wasn't cooked again. I asked the waitress to cut a piece to taste it herself so she could describe how poorly cooked the pasta was to the chef- she said she could not do such a thing. I then suggested she take it to the chef, have him cut a piece of the pasta for himself, then have him come out and discuss what we noticed about his dish - she didn't do that either. The other waiter came over and said he'd not charge us for the 32 dollar raviolis. The waiter asked me if there was anything else I wanted to order, so I ordered their beet salad. He said they were out of beets - a bit surprising, since their beet salad is something they are proud of there. We ordered two chocolate desserts - they were out of their famous Warm Chocolate Verona Cake and they were out of Window of Chocolate! We did order the Affogato Mocha and it was stellar. The negative mood of the dinner remained because they just didn't seem to care. When I say they, I am including the wait-staff, the floor manager (not sure there was one that night), and the two chefs behind the counter. This review should really be receiving one star, but the sauces were so good. It was completely disappointing both times how they managed to not handle the problem with the severely under-cooked lobster ravioli. It was as if the wait staff was afraid to tell the chef/owner, (not sure who was in charge there...maybe no one was in charge and the owner is disinterested in what his patrons think) that there was a problem with it. They charge 11 dollars for each ravioli, so one would think they have a sense of pride and would have an interest in why a customer was unhappy with one of their signature dishes, then go out of their way to try and remediate. Does the chef there take any pride in their craft? Does the waitstaff take pride in the food they serve there? There was a complete disconnect between the wait-staff and the chefs and the waitstaff and their customers - no sense of urgency whatsoever. Will I go back? I'm not sure. Especially because of the extreme sense of inconvenience they exhibited when a dish wasn't up to standard and when a customer wasn't happy with it and just wanted them to care about it. A restaurant with a name like Atelier, one would think the chef and waitstaff there would take the meaning of the name seriously and act interested. Maybe next time, if there is going to be one. read more

Tried this place during March 2023 restaurant week. The food was quite tasty (but not mind-blowing), and the service was attentive but not overbearing. The restaurant was so packed that the table had to be pulled out before I could squeeze into the booth. I had the foie gras and the salmon, which were both yummy. My friend loved her buffalo tartare, and for me the highlight of the evening was the chocolate cake. This was a solid meal and fun to try during restaurant week. read more

One of our new favorite spots for fine dining! There is no lack of high end restaurants in Denver, so make sure not to overlook this spot. First off, make sure you make a reservation. The space is small and intimate, meaning there aren't tons of tables. About the food, we finally feel like we've found a nice restaurant that breaks the habit of "the more you pay the less food you get". We started with drunken mushrooms which were delicious and had great sauce to soak up with bread. After that we had lobster ravioli and veal tenderloin. Everything was seasoned perfectly and we felt absolutely content. The staff was also extremely friendly and helpful, giving us tastes of wine until we found the one we liked best and being very attentive. This is now going to be our new spot for special occasions, or even just when we feel like having a nice dinner. read more

Forget about these bad restaurant week reviews. Me and my husband dined here a few hours ago and we Can. Not. Stop. Talking. About it! Simple amazing! I haven't had a true French dining experience and it was probably the best inclusive meal we've ever had as a couple. We started with the pate, tartar and caprese. We could have done without the caprese, not cause it wasn't superb, but cause we could have had a chance to get an even more adventurous appetizer that we hadn't seen before ( I.e.the sardines) All these apps were perfectly timed, portioned and concepted. Down to the tee. For entrees we had the saltimbocca imberico and the Colorado lamb chops. Pairs with au gratian potatoes, asparagus, a spinach salad and some sort of mirco green. We were licking our lips with every bite. We finished (at this point we might as well go all the way) with the bananas foster. Holy. Shit. This thing (for sharing) comes out in this super fancy glass serving pot and when you take off the top it's like your surrounded by a campfire. We also had a couple very very reasonably priced 15yr pappys and a nice bottle of wine. We def dined well and paid for it (370 before tip. We left a nice hundo) and it was worth every bite. The service was perfectly timed, patient with us not so fine diners and honest. When we were going to order 2 desserts, he let us know the foster was quite enough,which I appreciate. All in all, we can not wait to come back. read more

Well worth the wait! I had a reservation to dine at Atelier last spring, right as Colorado was placed on stay home orders. And then I really didn't go out to eat for 8-9 months. Takeout? Sure. Outside distancing happy hour? Occasionally. But not like, a real dinner at a restaurant. This felt special. Atelier does have patio dining with heaters, but my husband and I opted for inside and there's plenty of precautions for indoor eating, including very large plastic partitions to separate tables. All servers and kitchen staff wear masks, FYI. Felt safe the entire time. I could've eaten everything on the menu. No joke. It was difficult to pick just a few appetizers and a main from a long list of tasty options: https://atelierbyradex.com/project/dinner-menu/ We ended up going with the tartare and escargot to begin, then I had the bouillabaisse. Rich, buttery, flavorful, garlicky -- everything that French food should be! And a bottle of Chablis? C'est parfait. I hate to say this out loud but this might be my new favorite restaurant in Denver. read more

Fabulous!

It was Profheroles with chocolate mousse. It is a small place and I am sure it will fill up fast, I WOULD call to make a reservation soon and tell Radex I said hello. read more

We went here for Valentines Day which was a prefix menu. Honestly if we knew that, we probably wouldn't have gone. When we sat down, we saw the menu. It looked okay but we were there so it was what it was. First course was lobster ravioli which sounded good but it was undercooked, SUPER fishy, and semi cold when we got it. It was pretty gross if you ask me. Next course was tomato soup. Possibly made from a can and cost about $.60 to make. Next course was "shrimp" salad which was about 12 pieces of Spanish and legit ONE piece of shrimp. The shrimp was honestly pretty tasty but we got one piece. Which again probably cost them $.90 to make. Second to last course was 2 small beef medallions with a small cookie scoop of mashed potatoes and a "crab cake". It was nicely flavored but was the only course that was semi decent but the crab cake was terrible. Again, extremely fishy but at least the steak was cooked how we asked for it. I wouldn't be surprised if I have a stomach ache for days after eating just a bite of that crab cake. Oh and our entree was served on a new years plate from 2000. Last course was small cookie scoop of basically a chocolate truffle which in my opinion, lacked luster. And to add to it all our server barely spoke English. I had no idea what he said the entire night. Then, the bill was $359. Unbelievable. I have honestly never been so disappointed in a meal for the price. We could go to Uchi and be stuffed for $250 which is 10x better quality food then this place. I honestly don't even care if their a la carte menu is better because I won't be back. read more

This place had been on our to-try list long before the pandemic. Having had takeout, we can't wait to dine in when we can. I love to try chicken at a French or French style restaurant. I think it's a good way to gauge what I think of the chef's style. Radex's chicken was excellent. The butchering, the seasoning...everything was good, and the chicken was juicy and flavorful. My husband's elk was great as well. both came with delicious scalloped potatoes and broccolini. We were celebrating a special occasion at home, so we splurged and got the drunken mushrooms (wild mushrooms in a sauce so delicious I wished we had bread to sop up every last drop) and charcuterie. My husband tried the ravioli appetizer, which seemed filled with delicious crabcake-style seafood. They takeout menu differs from the regular menu, which I took to mean they chose dishes that would travel well and still represent the restaurant's style. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and look forward to the other side of this pandemic when we can comfortably eat in again. In the mean time, we would happily order takeout again. Next time I want a burger, I am ordering it from Atelier by Radex. read more

Atelier is a solid 3 1/2 stars restaurant. The service was fine. All the food was cooked well and okay overall. I really enjoyed the lobster ravioli.

No pictures because sometimes a girl just wants to eat. Small and cute restaurant. The staff are efficient so no unnecessary chit chat and the food comes fast. These serves can turn a table. The food is delish and generous portions. Cocktails are $15 and since I have a $13/cocktail limit, we did not order. We ordered a bottle of wine which was reasonably price per restaurant standards. The bread they serve at the table is not good dry and tastless. There are so many great bakeries in Denver they could source from. Disappointing Lobster ravioli - 4 delicious raviolis and a creamy sauce. Pate - 2 pieces served with toast, jam and some other things. Very good (but I have had better) Bouillabaisse- very, very tasty. The fish was tender and buttery. I wish there was more fish and shrimp. The base tasted of saffron, fennel and orange zest. Saltibocca - I have a mixed review ... veal was tender and the sauce was divine, but I got mouthfuls of sage and it just overpowered everything else. I know, I know this dish has sage, but this just had too much and made a taste leap out of my mouth. Dessert is $12.50 and they have a large dessert list. We were eloquently sufficient, but normally I find room for a sweet, but I did not feel like spending $12.50 and since the list was so long, I was nervous they outsourced their desserts. I guess I could have asked, but I didn't. We are definitely going back and we probably would dine on their appetizers. read more
