Kristen was out server, she was outstanding, we have been here several times and can honestly say that her and the bartender are your best servers. we’ve had plenty others, i don’t want to point them out but those are by far the best. The food was amazing, i had the pork chop and it was beyond my expectations, my husband had the salmon and that never fails. compliments to the chef for their consistency…

Had a wonderful time with my daughter and granddaughters celebrating our annual Christmas dinner. Would definitely go there again for any special occasion. Our server, Emily, was pleasant and with a great sense of humor. That's important to us as we like to have fun. The dessert was excellent.
