The service was fast, yet there was appropriate time between courses. With one exception, the food was outstanding. The mashed potatoes were very salty. Lighting was a bit too dim.

My Husband and I chose the 5:30 pm dining time. We couldn't have enjoyed ourselves more. The Food was fresh and delicious. Our server "Kayla" was very helpful and friendly. The Hummus with warm home made flatbread was the perfect complement to our entree. We chose the Wild Tuna Poke Bowl as our entrees and thoroughly enjoyed it. The Espresso Martini was made to perfection! We will absolutely return again and again.
