Excellent experience from start to finish! Service was exceptional and attentive throughout. Each course was delicious with the sea bass being one of the best I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to go back!

Seated at 6:20, got bill @9:15. Waited 20 minutes for wine. 6 tables flipped while we waited to finish. Understaffed for sure. Steak sauce was absorbed by potatoes so it turned to mushy potatoes. Waited 25 minutes for dessert drinks.
