This restaurant is absolutely amazing! I took my girlfriend here for Valentine’s Day, and we were promptly seated with excellent service. We ordered the steaks for dinner with a bottle of wine, and I will say you are definitely getting what you’re paying for. I will be coming back to this place in the future!

We waited 2 hours for our food, we was about to leave and then the food came, 2 other table left. Food is very pricey. Waitress was excellent if it wasn’t for her we would have left sooner
