Happy hour is offered Monday – Friday from 3:30 – 6:30 pm and features a ½ priced bar food menu, $5 glasses of red and white wine and $2 off all beers. We recommend the Harissa Grilled Shrimp Toast with avocado and the Lamb Meatballs; both are reasons we’d return again."

However, its casual elegance is also welcoming to families (there is no kids menu, however) and you may leave your jacket and tie at home."

The gabled wood ceiling, Mediterranean-meets-hacienda vibe, iron scrolled chandeliers, views of the surrounding hillsides, and a show-stopping piece of art by Damien Hirst has that covered.
