    Amazing dinner and had an amazing server, Todd! Can’t say enough about Suzanne, the manager. Her hospitality was superb. We will be back.

    I have always loved this place but service can be a little slow- especially when first arriving to order cocktails.

    The service was wonderful. The steak was the worst steak my husband had ever had. They clearly don’t know how to cook a well done steak. The chicken spidini was just okay. Not like other places I’ve had it. We used to love this place. Won’t be going back.

    We had a group of 6 and the experience was wonderful. Our servers, Wendy and Emma, were excellent! They were attentive and joked around with us throughout the night. We had a nice private room in the back, so our group was able to enjoy the evening with some privacy. The food was delicious and the drinks were great! Overall, one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in many years!
