    I have eaten here for many years and driven hours to do so….booking far in advance as we live 6+ hour away but the service we received today will make me never want to return. So sad for it always being a fave but the way we were treated today with the attitude of the hostess makes for it pretty easy to not return again. Such a disappointment.

    Service was outstanding, especially considering our reservation was at 9pm and the staff was working the dinner service for many hours. Unbelievably service oriented. Food was exceptional, as always. The place was packed, and as a result the decibel level was high. It was expensive, but we really enjoyed being taken care of on the night before Valentine’s Day.
