Five stars aren't enough! 4/16/2011

While visiting family in Chester, we had the good fortune to be brought to this intimate, elegant, and wonderful restaurant. The food was to die for, at an unoffensive prie - I was instantly jealous of those who could dine every day and enjoy the ever-changing menu. The staff were gracious, giving us a dessert on the house upon hearing it was my first time here. This flawless heaven of a restaurant truly raises the bar! more

If you want Rudeness and Poor Service then Go 8/26/2009

We had lunch last week with local friends from Chester and were warned that the staff were a bit snobish and rude. Wow what an understatement. The hostess was unbeliveable . It was the worst experience ever . we were treated as if we were asking for a free handout instead of paying for the most expensive food in the area . felt sorry for the waiter as he acted as if he went through this before . we will never go there again ,its really too bad as the food was good more

Don't expect friendly conversation! 2/6/2007

As a fairly new Chester resident (almost 5 years now..but that's still considered new to many!) I want to ""like"" this place but after 5 visits I have to say I'm extremely disappointed. I felt the need to write this review after my most recent visit. more

Nothing to brag about 3/10/2006

Service was slow; wait staff was not attentive. Food reeked with garlic; limited menu. Half price on glasses of wine helped salvage a ho-hum evening. more
