Celebrated our 45th anniversary with an excellent meal here. Our hostess brought us to a nice table in dining room and a little card wishing a happy anniversary and stating we were getting a dessert on them! Michael our waiter started us out with complimentary mini champagne flutes too! The appetizer of flash-fried shrimp and calamari was honestly one the best appys that we have ever tasted. Highly recommend! Our wedge and garden salads were fresh and plentiful. Michael assisted with our choice Entrees of petit filet mignon and signature WiseGuys meatloaf made with ground ribeye and sirloin. Both along with 4 sides were more than we could handle but simply delicious. Service was attentive with water glasses refilled often and food delivered and plates removed with perfect timing. We hardly were able to share a well presented lite specialty dessert. All in all a wonderful meal and memorable celebration of a long marriage. ❤️
