Our dinners were delicious and overall we had a great experience. Our server Lexi was also the bartender so she was sometimes quite awhile getting back to us with our drinks and then again to take our dinner orders. But overall, Very Good!

Service was fantastic and the young lady that served us did a wonderful job serving 9 people. Oysters Rockefeller was superb, they were a pinch small, but tasted wonderful. The wedge salad was "ok", not bad not great. My New York strip steak was over cooked and a little tough. The side of broccoli was at best luke warm. The Cheesecake is to die for. We will return, just will not get the New York strip.

We came for brunch after church with a friend. The service was exceptional from the moment we walked in the door! Our server, Jared, was attentive, funny, helpful and charming! You can't ask for more. Our food came out pretty quickly, considering the place was packed! My husband had the garbage bowl (or something to that effect) and our friend and I both had Benedicts. They were fabulous. Oh! Have one of their fun mimosas! We'll be back!

The steak rolls were the highlight. Extremely delicious. The steak was okay. The Diane sauce wasn't either of our favorite thing. Mashed potatoes and asparagus were very good.
