It was our 18th wedding anniversary and we were greeted and congratulated by at least 3 different people. The Anniversary card and champagne toast was also a very heartwarming touch as well thank you! Our server was fantastic and very attentive to us throughout. Our food was delicious and we brought home enough for another meal. We couldn’t have had asked for a nicer evening.

I am a platinum rewards member, so it was “all you can eat shrimp” weekend. The food was really delicious. I only ate once, but my husband ate plenty. The service was great, the drinks were good, and the food was seasoned well. We will be back soon.
