five star review by Michael W:

You'd never believe a place this nice was located in a small strip mall! Small, intimate setting so the servers can see all the tables and attend to you quickly. Live piano player was excellent and took requests. Food was fantastic, didn't need an ounce of salt or pepper added! Apart from the high end steaks the prices were reasonable. I'm definitely going to back.

Hidden gem in Novato! Excellent service and great food. Ambiance is one to experience - intimate and moody, just like the Speakeasy next door. Fine dining in one room and 'Speakeasy' bar next door. They have a live pianist in the dining room on select nights which I have experienced, highly recommended. The odd location adds to the appeal of the 'Speakeasy' feel.

Very cool place attached to a speakeasy. Hidden away in an unassuming plaza. The interior is very fitting. The staff was top notch and the food was excellect. I had the lamb shank the first time i went and filet mignon the second. I would recommend both dishes
