Amazing food and service. There were so many amazing choices, it was so hard to narrow it down. Great wine selection, overall fantastic. My family and I look forward to another visit. Our server / waitress was kind professional and very knowledgeable about the menu. Great food and great service is a winning combination. Thanks

First, wait staff was lovely and attentive. The food and ambience were sub par and didn’t deliver as expected. There were these bright LED lights on each table, and the music and tvs were blasting. As for the food, we had ordered roasted brussels sprouts appetizer that came gloppy and soft. Salmon was overcooked, and roasted potatoes were fried fingerlings. I had expected more with the pricing being so high.
