Not only was our server attentive, but other servers seemed to be watching the room to step in as appropriate. We were there early, and the friendly vibe made it feel like The Place to Be. Excellent wine by the glass explanation by the server with a selection I'll try to find to purchase for home use.

We went in with a party of 8. Of coarse a few were half an hour late. There was no issue with this, they let us wait at our table for everyone to get there before ordering. The food was fantastic, the wait staff was welcoming, understanding, and attentive. We stayed for over three hours chatting and catching up. Great experience and will definitely be going back!
