    Went on Thanksgiving and though we did not have turkey for dinner the experience was fantastic and the service was just wonderful. Great food, friendly staff, what more could you want. Our table was perfect in a quieter area surrounded by glass, perfect for my hard of hearing father who is 95 years old. Just the perfect evening!
