“ Just go to this place. You can taste the love in every single dish. Everyone is happy to work here and it shows. The setting is the most eclectic luxurious interior restaurant I've been to. The eggplant Capri and magic mushroom soup were a litany of flavors. We split a Caesar salad and suttle yet poignant. I had the shrimp and crab crepe with an etoifee that exploded in my mouth. John had the Norwegian Halibut that could not have been fresher. Applied pie and creme brulee finished us off. Every single thing was exquisite. Gracie has been in the kitchen for 34 years. She said she found herself in there. It shows. ”
“ In a world that has no idea how to make a good cocktail, Gracie's always nails the drink! Then they nail the appetizer, the entree, AND the dessert to boot. Wait staff is always friendly and attentive. Menu changes periodically to keep things interesting, and there are always unique foods to try. I like the variety! I am gluten/dairy sensitive and can always find something on the menu! ”
