Great service, excellent food. Drinks are on point. Atmosphere is elevated, but inviting. Our server Kef was excited to share his knowledge of the extensive selection of top shelf whiskeys and bourbons. The food is excellent, from starters to dessert. You can’t go wrong on this menu. And the managers and owners are in the mix, bussing, expediting, and working front of house as needed, which leaves a great impression on us as diners. Will look forward to our return trip tonight!
