"Food was great! Prices a little high for serving size, but it was nice to have something a little different."

"Classy, romantic vibe with table cloths & mood lighting. Fleetwood Mac in the background. Wowee, food was AMAZING! Unique well-combined flavors. Perfectly cooked fish. The bread pudding is to die for. We were a lucky walk in, reservations are recommended. Dressing up is unnecessary, a come as you are place, but the environment lends well to an anniversary or special occasion."

"The exterior was hard to find. Not adequate signage or lighting. There was an open sign bit I didn't know what was open. And they said they were open still serving. Once we got inside and seated it was very nice. Kinda like a mini Martini's without the view. The menu options were amazing. Have a great drink selection even though I don't drink. The. Decor is very appealing. Overall a great place. I wish them success."

"From the moment that my wife and myself walked in the front door it was exactly what and where we wanted to spend our 11th anniversary. The atmosphere was intimate and special from the dimly lit tables to seeing the passionate owner/chef smiling when you ask what his favorite dish to prepare is. The watermelon salad appetizer was deliciously light starter. For entrees we had the seared Ahi tuna and oven kalua pig with cabbage that were plated beautifully. The Ahi tuna was delicious standing alone and then when you add in the seaweed slaw, jasmine rice, and Wasabi aioli it was an explosion of flavor. The pig and cabbage was so tenderly cooked that it would melt in your mouth and had a nice serving of jasmine rice and potato salad (that would be a fan favorite at any summer cookout). We finished with a crème brûlèe to share (the first time my wife has had this desert) and it didn't disappoint! We will be dining here again in the near future and have already suggested it to our friends."

"Great savory menu selection and very boutique atmosphere in old down town Burlington. As a world traveler it is great to get a chef that has traveled as well and learned to infuse tastes and flavors from all over. Highly recommend for taste unlike any other in town."
