Outstanding server John. He was very accommodating and helpful as well as personable. I will say that the choice of tables when we came in was Limited and so we sat at a booth, which turned out to be fine, but I think on the patio it might be nice if you had seating for parties greater than four. Otherwise, everything was very, very good.

I loved this restaurant. Will definitely return. Went for a date night before a show. It was fully booked. Noise level was moderate. Not loud but not quiet either. Didn’t have to scream my order to the server. Food was excellent and so were the cocktails. My only negative is the dress code. I wished they didn’t allow athletic wear - tshirts, sweatpants, hoodies; a collared shirt dress code should be enforced. Being a 5 star restaurant, the attire of the patrons should also be of 5 star standard.
