    Drinks were great, staff was great and hospitable, food was delicious. We spent our 20th anniversary here and it was well worth it. The restaurant has an amazing and helpful staff with a great view of the city fireworks display on Friday nights!

    The staff remembered what I visited last year. I was very happy. All the dishes were delicious, and there were many kinds of alcohol. I was able to have a good meal and a good space while watching the fireworks on Friday. The staff remembered my physical condition, and I wanted to do my best to treat and visit again.

    Dined here twice within a week; service, food, presentation and value were all great. Loud on a Saturday - difficult to fear the vocalist, on a Thursday, just loud. Beautiful venue, noisy, too low patio chairs sort of ruin the vibe.
