    The customer service here is excellent! My daughter graduated from Purdue and she was surprised when the server approached and congratulated her for her accomplishments! I ordered Espresso martini. Although the bar was backed up they were able to provide us an update on everything and a complimentary other Bev for waiting. We also asked for recommendations and they made server was knowledgeable. We ordered Stracchino which literally is amazing! Heated pano with honey cream on side so soft and smooth with a sweet kick from honey. Then we ordered Truffle Pasta which was delicious. Handmade noodles with butter sauce and truffle shavings. Finally we had the Pavlova Dessert. It literally melted in my mouth. The sauce was a bit tangy but it’s because the delicate white shell is sweet to balance. I may want to add a slight drizzle of chocolate sauce next time. Definitely will be back! I want to try the other pasta Vodka sauce next time and am addicted to the Stracchino. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

    We come here every year on Dec 26th and after all this time, it doesn't disappoint. Even though it's a big place - the pandemic patio has been integrated into the main space - and there are many parties of 6 or more around the holidays, service is friendly and attentive, and food is consistently good. We ordered the trout, the fried chicken, and the green chile mac + cheese, and all were excellent. Also, glad to see that they still have the cornbread on the menu.

    My wife and I ate at a high top in the bar, we like the music and crowd. Her filet and my bone in ribeye were perfect, medium rare. My side of cream spinach was served lukewarm and I returned it. I didn’t have it replaced although they offered. There was a problem in getting our two glasses of wine before our meal, the food came out way too quickly even though we had requested a slow delivery of our meal. One of the managers came by and finally got our wines. My wife had finished her steak and I was half finished. By this time. A different server, Mike took over and things returned to a great experience, we received a free butter cake and credit for the two wines and Mike gave us two green tea shots on him after we had paid our bill. They messed up with communication but recovered beautifully. It turned out to be a great experience.

    What a pleasant experience!!! We came here on Christmas Eve for dinner and all the way from the food to the service it was all amazing! Beautiful restaurant, everything is so spaced out yet it can accommodate so many tables/people. The laaarge outdoor patio was also very nice to go out to after for a drink. We ordered quite a few menu items for just the two of us because we simply could not resist trying a variety of the menu items and not a single complaint ! This place was stunning during the holiday season and so nicely decorated. Thank you for making our Christmas Eve even a bit more special, we will be back!

    Food for five persons were very good with great services and hospitality.We ate our dinner at five pm and the outdoor dining area were pretty dark as there are no ceiling lights but do have small table LED light lamps and under bench lighting. Some of us had hard hard time reading the menus with low lights but was managed somehow. We will go there again with better daylights.
