Parking

It's tough to find a space downtown, so take advantage of the restaurant's free valet parking.

Where To Sit

If you're up for a cocktail and people-watching, ask for a seat near the bar area's front window. Otherwise, a spacious booth in the middle of the dining room is prime real estate here.
