    The atmosphere has a trendy loud vibe with live music. If that’s what you’re looking for then this is it. The bar menu is extensive. They have a nice signature cocktail selection and made correctly without watering it down. I had a locally brewed beer and my party had old fashions and espresso martinis. All excellent. This place is massive but it’s recommended to make reservations especially during the weekend. This place is always packed as their food is excellent along with service. We had Arie as our server and she never neglected us. We brought a couple for the first time and they loved everything about this restaurant. You can’t go wrong with the Bolognese. Excellent pasta. The rest of my party had fried chicken and salmon entree. Delicious! I highly recommend CD especially this location. Everyone were friendly and helpful!
