The wait staff were amazing. Our server gave great descriptions and suggestions for ordering. The family style service provided a great opportunity to taste and try a very tasty variety of starters and main dishes. We had a large group of 12-6 adults and 6 kids ranging in age from about 17 months to 17 years of age. Drinks and food came out as they were ready and gave everyone plenty of time to enjoy. The venue has a warm and welcoming vibe in sync with the warm and welcoming staff. Looking forward to our next visit!

We loved our time here- I loved that it had a great vibe and we could talk and enjoy every ones company. Food was great and a great value- It was a cold night- we sat by the window and it was cold. We sat with our coats over our shoulder. This was the only minus- Otherwise a stellar experience.

The noise level does not allow me to rate it as, to damn loud ! Otherwise great food and service. Our waitress was outstanding. Support staff on top of everything. Food was delicious. We entered when there were just 4 tables occupied. As the evening progressed and noise level rosé, I noticed the music volume was turned up. As more tableau were filled, music turned up further. Why ? To motivatie people not to linger in order to turn over tables quicker ? As much as we enjoyed everything else. Not sure if we will return to all that noise which the restaurant creaties by continually increasing volume of music
