    Thank you for an amazing evening! I called and told the restaurant that we were celebrating an engagement and requested a bottle of champagne. The table was set with a congratulations card, and the bottle was ready for the toast! Thank you! The food was delicious! Service was the best!

    Overall great dining experience! Server was good and attentive, food was served hot and look great on the plate. Only issue was the 3 wine choices I made, they were out of stock, but our server made a recommendation that worked. Server also made sure to check back often, but not constantly, she had a good flow of checking in on her tables. Enjoyed our evening

    It was a wonderful experience, with a perfect view of the downtown city scape. The shopping area was decorated with colorful lights which added to the ambiance for Christmas. Food was perfect. Steaks were tender, and juicy, pork chop was excellent and the bread was so good with the 3 sauces. We had empanadas as well, and they were good, but our group decided if there was something to pass, it would be this, as we didn’t have room for dessert. Our waiter, Justin, was excellent and on top of making our dining a wonderful experience! Highly recommend this restaurant!
