    We celebrated my girlfriend‘s birthday here. It was her first time being here and she loved every entrée that came out. She definitely wants to try the other locations. We cannot wait to dine with you again.

    The food and atmosphere is always exceptional but the service was not the best. We had a reservation for 7:30 but were not seated until 8pm. It made for a rushed experience.

    Beware, you cannot get separate checks at your table. We were a party of 4 and both couples wanted their own check. The server advised she could not do it. We each had $50 off for the first time use of the Inkind app but since we couldn't get separate checks, only 1 couple could only use the $50 off. It was so noisy, we couldn't hear the server describe the dishes as they came or the specials in the beginning. We had to flag the server down for drinks and the check. Spent almost $500. Most of the food was good but did not care for the ribeye (mealy), lamb (stringy) or the sweet potato (strange combination of ingredients, just personally didn't like it). We won't be back.
