    Thank you Naomi for outstanding service! We really appreciated your attentiveness, friendliness, grace, and commitment to excellence! Shout out to the chefs for keeping me gluten free safe! The GF Philly steak flatbread was delish! The plank salmon was wonderful! As was the Mahi Mahi lettuce wrap tacos! (They were so yummy we came back for more today!) Finishing off the meal— the cappuccinos were excellent! And of course the mini deserts were perfectly sized to provide a sweet perfect finish to yet another awesome meal experience!
