"I stayed at the attached Hampton hotel on business and was looking for a great dinner where I could dine alone. I was told by the desk to try this restaurant. I walked in and was astounded at how beautiful the restaurant and bar were, it was during the Christmas season. I was given a corner table by the hostess which I loved. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant and was impressed by the menu (I have worked or consulted for some very high restaurants/retailers in Manhattan). I had a waitress, if I'm correct her name was Amy. She came off as very professional but in some ways sweet. She was a great waitress. She brought me my order perfectly timed from my cocktail to my wine to my appetizer to the entree and to the dessert. I knew I picked the right place when I ordered a Negroni and it was perfectly made. I had a great salad but I was most impressed by the cassoulet. I've eaten in Paris, Montreal, NYC etc. and it was probably the best cassoulet I have ever had. It was delicious! Everything else was also very good including my chocolate dessert. Unfortunately my espresso was poorly made. The flavor was there but not the technique. After my meal I felt so comfortable that I decided to stay a bit longer and asked Amy if the restaurant carried Amaro. She didn't know what they were and the bartender Peter immediately came to my table and explained what he had. To my surprise he had Amaro Lucano, a spirit from my wife's small town in Italy. Very hard to find. The bar has an awesome menu of wine, spirits and beers. He gave me the drink on the house and recommended that I try one of his drinks called a Boulevardier. It was excellent. Most importantly Peter was very professional and maybe because of my being in the food business too, he told me about the restaurant and gave me a tour. I totally felt his passion about his job which was great to see! Anyway he was a great bartender. In short, I totally loved this restaurant from its ambiance to its menu to its staff. Wish it were in NYC. Can't wait to go back!"

"we were so on tonight and the restaurant, just to enjoy everything. our waitress was at the beginning good, knowledgeable and timely. To achieve the problem, they have different employees supply the meal times and allegedly the main waiter staff checked back when the meal times are delivered. one of our meals was not what was ordered, and even though we told the waiting staff several times, he left the wrong eating at our table. we waited too long until someone gets the meal until the waitress starts to look at the table while he told my man that he begins to eat his meal. we finally stopped a waiting staff that didn't even wait for our table. he immediately took the meal and we waited again. while my man desperately tried to eat slowly. what caused the friction between us because I thought we were eating together. Finally, our waitress returned, told us that the meals were delivered to the wrong table, although a meal was right. explain that the other meal was prepared, but it will take a little time. you have to ask who has eaten? When the meal(s) were delivered, they brought my men also second meal plate. if we ask ourselves if we want to take it. unfortunately we went to the theater and couldn't eat with us. then the manager was involved and apologised, the waitress apologised and I ate very quickly not really enjoy my meal or this experience. they finished my meal they would have done anyway. will we go back? will we recommend? to both, but not immediately."
