For starters I had a beet soup with truffle cheese - smooth, subtle and delicious. My husband had a wonderful salad with fried artichoke hearts. Our entrees were great as well. I had one of the best burgers I have ever had - grilled and presented in a tortilla instead of a bun. My husband had pork with ginger and cherry sauce - amazing. For dessert we split the lavender creme brulee. Fantastic experience and the staff was great.
