I got a steak and chicken fajitas. I gave the service 4 stars because I ordered corn tortillas and the kitchen gave me flour tortillas and I'm gluten free. The wait staff was great. I couldn't understand why I got one slice of a tomato normal slices of tomatoes for fajitas. All in all, a nice place to get some Mexican food

Walked in with very little idea what to expect. Which is, firstly, that you should have a reservation. The decor could be overwhelming if it wasn't so well put together. The restaurant is also an antique store, so a lot, if not all, of the decor, is for sale, along with another floor or two of antiques, which I did not visit. Back to the lack of reservation - the manager said they could serve the two of us in half an hour, and we were welcome to view the garden in the meantime. The garden is gorgeous, with plenty of shade along the walkway, and outdoor seating and it was somehow cooler there than anywhere else on this summer day. When it was time for us to order, it was a tough decision. Menu items range in price mostly from $16-30. It was more than I'd anticipated, but not unreasonable. I wanted to eat light, and got salmon and herbed cream cheese bruschetta, minus the bread, since I'm gluten free. My companion got a housemade chicken salad sandwich with a side of potato salad. The portion sizes completely justified the price. I got 4 thin slices of salmon rolled up with cream cheese (the server said the kitchen had fun making that) on a bed of shredded romaine, topped with housemade (bread & butter style) pickles, picked red onion, sliced hard boiled egg, crumbled goat cheese, and capers. There was a slice of orange and of watermelon on the side. The chicken salad was on thick toasted bread. It also came with fruit and pickles. We both decided the pickles were tasty, but too spicy. We considered dessert, but were already taking home half of our meals, so we declined. The options were lemon cake with mascarpone filling, flourless chocolate torte, or créme bruleé. UPDATE 6/22/23: Went with my husband for our anniversary. Dinner entrée prices range from $20-60. I had a grilled salmon with apricot sauce, rice pilaf and sautéed vegetables on the side. My husband got a tenderloin steak with loaded baked potato and sautéed vegetables. I got dessert this time! Creme brulee with berries - a traditional nutmeg custard. We also walked around the upper floors and in the gardens. The ambience is magical.

Atmosphere was nice. Servers were nice. The food however was over priced for how mediocre it ended up being. The presentation could also use some improvement. I ordered the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer, it came out on a plate. I asked for my salad to have no cheese specifically, it came with cheese on it. The salad presentation alone looked like those old high school lunches from back in the day. That was corrected immediately so that I'm thankful for. However I was in the mood to have the gluten free fettuccine con pollo. The noodles I could tell were gluten free but I can't say with confidence that the sauce was the same. It made my stomach turn So I wasn't comfortable finishing that dish.
