    We took advantage of their Monday date night special (appetizer to share, entree, and dessert to share). Everything was great!

    The staff is very friendly, and menu has many tasty options. The craft cocktail options are good too! The wine list is very good.

    I have eaten here lots. I understand they were busy today and it was a holiday, but I honestly felt like we were sort of neglected because of the bigger parties. I think our waitress assumed I wouldnt tip as much because it was a smaller party and it was actually hard to get the basics we needed. My salad was served with no dressing or silverware and my steak which was supposed to be medium was burnt. Getting drink refills didn’t happen. We were never offered dessert. They had an abbreviated menu for the holiday which was okay I sort of understand, but when you have food allergies it makes it harder especially when you were excited about something you could eat there that wasn’t being served. In addition, the table next to us had kids that were allowed to run around the restaurant making my smaller child worked up on top of them throwing their toys on our table twice and the other table next to us decided to literally change their infants diaper on top of the table and we smelled it until we left. Umm that’s not sanitary and there are changing tables in the bathroom. I thought long and hard before leaving this review. Especially I too am a mother, but for a meal I dropped $100 on for 3 people I am a bit upset. (And we didn’t get appetizers, alcoholic beverages or dessert.) I probably won’t be back for a long time which is a shame, because we used to eat here quite a bit.

    I took my mom here for Mother’s day and it was amazing! The food was delicious, we got the Salmon and the Chicken and waffles. The service was also great! Our server was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and checked on us frequently. We will definitely be coming back.

    Came to celebrate my mom’s birthday and the food and service were great! Karlie took great care of us at the bar since we arrived early and made us amazing cocktails! Our steaks were amazing and my mom loved the salmon! Gracie was our waitress and was a sweetheart! Look forward to celebrating many more birthdays here because half the staff came and sang happy birthday to my mom! Love this place!

    What a pleasant (not so little) surprise! Delightful find. Delicious food & terrific service. They even replaced a cocktail that was a tad too sweet. Our only non-positive comment would be on the lighting. The entire place is lit with exposed Edison bulbs. It could be SO much more warmly lit without all the glare!!! Otherwise 5 Stars 👍

    It took so long to get our food, I honestly believe the waitress forgot to put the order in. People who ordered after us got their food before we got our salads. Not a good experience for the price paid for the food.
