    Great food and good service but we felt a bit forgotten at the end of the meal as it got very busy. We waited for longer than expected after plates were cleared before our sherbet arrived with the bill. Overall another great meal though.

    Jesus and Casey (sp?) (@ Mpls location on 1/7 @ 1pm) were FANTASTIC! We had a late in the season holiday party but they made us feel so very important and festive. Even the nice lady that took our picture in the beginning. 100% would recommend ❤️

    The pricing is crazy now. The food was ok, my chicken and zucchini was overcooked. Even with a birthday coupon, two dinner meals $128.00. I definitely wouldn’t go without the birthday coupon. In this economy this isn’t worth the price. I checked on a margarita and is was $24, what for a small drink. That was a hard pass. Also waited s long time pay and get change

    Chef did pretty good. Servet was not the best. Asked to speak with Steve was told he would coming he never came. no Manager touch the table to ask if everything was fine. Spending over two hundred dollars.

    I asked the sever if I could get the lunch duet. She said its dinner menu only and it was 12pm. I heard the table next to me order lunch duet. So when the server came back I asked her about it to understand the confusion. We already got our food by the time she came back but she heard me the first time ! I didn’t mind paying but I could’ve got what I usually get and wanted over spending extra money to order my stuff separately or dinner menu prices ! So keep in mind you can always get the lunch menu items even if they give you a dinner menu during lunch hours.
