    Why should I use open table again? I specifically said on my reservation that it was my wife’s birthday.It was never mentioned at the restaurant so I waited for them to sing Happy Birthday to her. Never happened.So does that mean OT doesn’t communicate with the restaurant?

    Recommend booking a table indoors. Outdoors can be buggy in late spring and summer.

    Our Wait Staff, Winston, made for a memorable Mothers Day dinner. Appetizers of Shrimp Cocktail, Beef Carpaccio plus Dinner Salads were fabulous! Entrees of Broadway Street Fillet, Lamb Chops, Grilled Fillet of Beef, Veal Piccata plus a childs meal were all outstandingly delicious with a wonderful presentation! Desserts were equally delicious!
