An unassuming spot for a 5 star meal. Reservations required and Carlos meets you out in the parking lot with his tie over his shoulder as the official sign of a warm welcome. If you are celebrating something special this meal will be memorable (pricey but the service is outstanding!) I recommend the lobster salad and the oscar filet mignon. Expect to drop a couple hundred but it is a meal you'll remember for a lifetime.
