    The reason for the four star rating is because, when you have a reservation, I see no point in having to continue to wait to be seated for a few minutes after checking in. This is the only restaurant where I experience this and it happens every time I come. There are tables available in the dining room too and so, regardless of whether or not the whole party is there, when guests check in, they should be seated. Do what you need to fix this and I will give you five stars all the way! This is a good restaurant and the service is very friendly. I am a repeat customer and my hope is that this suggestion will help an already great restaurant become an even better restaurant!

    Service was sporadic. They seem to be short-staffed. The food was okay. Nothing outstanding. Perhaps going there for brunch instead of dinner is a better option.

    Hi Juan. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconsistency in service. We’d love the chance to give you a better experience next time—perhaps at brunch! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. -Najjah

    Food wasn't very warm, which was kind of disgusting. Also very over priced for what was available at the buffet.
