Good food, service and atmosphere. In my opinion the finest restaurant downtown. Professional waiting staff (upstairs part of the restaurant) has never failed to create a superb dining experience, with a silent, invisible touch. Amazing expertise! A little pricy but well worth it. UPDATE, listed on top 50 most romantic restaurants in the USA.
