Cherry was our waitperson and she was AWESOME!! We ordered their specials for the month and they were outstanding. Our wine, as usual, was quite good and we had a most enjoyable Monday night out.

We really like the venue. Very large and can get loud but like the setup. Service can get a little slow when they get busy. Comfort food at its best. For the first time I tried their sushi rolls and they were very solid. Not what you get at a sushi restaurant (fish portions small) but I would certainly order them again.
