romatic, good food, great service more

The food, the service, the overall experience and attention we received were impeccable from start to finish. Even the salad, aptly named Holy Greens because the salad greens are blessed by the nuns who grows them, is great. We loved all our food and highly recommend ending with the Bananas Foster.
