Reservation is as easy and there was no wait, ambience was perfect, food was great and service was excellent. Three of us had the prime rib (very tasty and cooked to perfection), one had the mahi mahi and loved it, and the other one had a vegan dish and very happy with it. We shared the calamari and Brussels sprouts and had the hula pie, peanut butter torte, pumpkin pie - all excellent. Thank you for staying open for Thanksgiving.

The food and the service here is above and beyond excellent. A bit pricey, as is everywhere else. Our only discomfort was the noise level - it was difficult to carry on a conversation. But this is one of our favorite go-to places and so will return - and highly recommend it!

The atmosphere, service and food were all wonderful. Casual dining experience. We ate curbside, the weather was perfect but they also have heaters. Service was great! We enjoyed our meal and conversation without feeling rushed or bothered. The food was amazing. I was driving and didn’t to try the wine but the options looks good. Very much looking forward to returning. I came with two friends and it was perfect. This would also be good for a date
