    If you like mushrooms... try the Three Mushroom pizza. Portabello, Cremini and Beech Mushrooms are layered with Italian Crucolo cheese and leek fondue atop a crispy crust. Read more

    [...] you’ll behold a shaded, intimate patio, ideal for tasting fine wines, sampling truffle fries and crabcakes, and taking in views of the retail chaos of Highland Village and beyond.

    For duos, one prime location that can be overlooked are the small tables directly in front of the bar, which offer a sweeping view of the entire restaurant.

    The lobster Bisque and the paella are amazing!. The chocolate mouse was good but nothing special.

    Looking out over Highland Village’s palm tree-lined boulevard is like nothing else. And when they open the windows to let the outside in, that is a treat itself. Read more

    Food was great, service sub par. If I spending money tell me a special don't point to it on a menu

    Disregard all previous tips. Only into appetizer phase (UNBELIEVABLE CAPRESE SALAD), but service, atmosphere, food is a cut above, appropriate to the restaurant's physical location.

    It's pretty ridiculous that they don't split checks. We had a party of 15 people and it took FOREVER

    AVOID!!! Manager Martin was incredibly rude + food is so-so at best (out of 4 dishes I sampled only 1 was good - lobster ravioli) + waitstaff is very nice + ceiling LEAKED on our party! = not worth it

    Embarrassed to say I have been here not once but twice. Owner is rumored to be anti semetic and there are flies EVERYWHERE. The table was swarming and we were told by waiter it's like that all over.

    Be careful with the elevators. They do get stuck.
