Finale has great marketing, and great publicity. I signed up for their email list, and the deals and specials they offer are truly great money savers. However, if it were not for my "Sweet Rewards card" or the specials they occasionally have, I would not frequent this dessert place as much. I do LOVE their molten cake, and their mini... more

They made me fall in love with dessert wines. The 2002 DeLoach Gewurztraminer. Sigh. And they have mirrors on their ceiling near the chef station so you can watch them make the desserts. It's food porn. more

Deserts were excellent. Super rich. Service was very good. Extremely expensive though. It's a bit of a disappointment when your desert costs more than the meal you just ate somewhere else. Other than that though, this place is great. more
