This wonderful little place is about half a block West of the main downtown but well worth the short walk! It has a true bistro feel with many visual pleasures including Cuban tile floors and beautiful stained glass panels. The service was very attentive and pleasant along with helpful suggestions. First was a tasty Tomato Bisque soup followed by Poached Pear Salad of poached pears, goat cheese, bruschetta, spiced walnuts and balsamic glaze on a bed of organic mixed greens which was delicious. Then, a hard to find, Roast Duck with crispy duck medallions served with a cherry gran marnier balsamic sauce. Finally, a super rich and moist dessert- Chocolate cake with a fudge like chocolate frosting covered with milk, dark and white chocolate pieces! Heaven on a plate! See photos! Yes I did take a bite or two before photographing some things. Can you blame me?

Hidden gem in Downton Lakeland. The restaurant is not big, but the good and service is wonderful. This is the only local place that I have managed to find beef Wellington and I will for sure be back for it. The absolute best thing if the night though was the lemon and blueberry cake.

Tried this place for the first time during Valentine’s day weekend and it will not be our last. We had the tomato bruschetta as an appetizer followed by the tomato bisque soup, and, the cesar salad before our meal. I ordered the beef wellington, and he ordered the ribeye dish and let me tell you what, the food was super hot and delicious!! I have not had a hot meal like that from any kitchen ever and I would highly recommend checking out this local gem. We ended up with the Crème Brulee dessert and the double blueberry lemon cake. Best steaks in town! You will not be disappointed.

My husband and I went for our anniversary and enjoyed every minute of our evening. The food was outstanding. It was perfectly seasoned, not too salty, and we could really taste the fresh flavors. The butternut squash soup was perfect, and the sea bass was off the charts! My husband said it was the best fish he had ever had. The servers were very attentive and friendly. Compliments to the chef!

It was a lovely and intimate time. The red tablecloths and purple napkins give it a very elegant atmosphere. It is a very small place, but the waitresses are very friendly and polite. They want to ensure that they cater to your every need. My husband and I celebrated our 35th anniversary at this restaurant. It was our first time here, and we were very pleased with the delicious food and our lovely waitress Ava. I’m looking forward to going back again.

We are from Tampa and stopped by here for a date night whilst visiting family in Lakeland. The price was comparable to Berns Steak house but don’t expect Berns. The service was good and they have an extensive wine list, but the food was mediocre in my opinion. I ordered the crab cakes and risotto. The crab cakes were burnt and the risotto lacked any kind of flavor or seasoning. I was quite disappointed. The menu has many options though, so maybe there are better dishes to choose from. Overall the place has a moody, relaxing atmosphere which is great for enjoying a good glass of wine with good company.

Excellent fine dining! The food is exquisite. Everything we had was perfectly executed. We had the Caesar salad and pear salad, the stuffed portobello mushroom appetizer, the Beef Wellington, the scallops over a parmesan risotto, and the creme brulee. The prices are high (roughly $44/entree), but worth it for a special occasion or any time you want an especially delicious meal.

I cannot recommend this place enough. My wife and I enjoyed a nice relaxed night out. Starting with the appetizers through desserts, it was delightful experience. Everything tasted amazing and I loved the atmosphere. We will definitely be back for more.

Let me begin by saying the menu pricing was 10% higher on entrees and 20% higher on appetizers than posted on their website. Front of house was nice and inviting and back of house needed work and a cleaning crew. The bathroom was located behind the kitchen where you walked by a cluttered office and table filled with clutter. Sorry you shouldn’t expect your patrons paying $100/person for dinner to experience this. While the food was better than average, the portions were small and expect to pay $60 an entree. Service was good. They seemed to have a much older, loyal patron but for younger to middle age customers that are willing to explore and get out of the neighborhood this is not a go to place. One expects more for this price range of restaurant.
