    The food was absolutely amazing and so was the wine selection. We had a fantastic server that didn't leave us unattended even the minute and ensured a true range of selection for starters and deserts. We will be back.

    A beautiful meal in lovely surroundings. Great service. We really enjoyed it, so delicious. My only negative would be the seating around the round table with very big heavy central leg was not particularly easy or comfortable.

    The service at Heirloom was impeccable. The sommelier made great recommendations for us, and also helped us to plan an itinerary for wine tasting next week. The food was well prepared, beautifully presented and delicious combinations of flavors.
