We had a nice meal in a casual and fun setting near Discovery Green. The food was OK but not great. The appetizers were top notch. I had the sole, which was ok but had too much butter and was a little over cooked. But overall it was a pretty good meal.

Tarsha was an excellent server (though very busy, so we rarely saw her). The management team was stellar in delivering food and checking in. Everyone there was really great. The food was not worth the price point, in my opinion, even on Valentine's Day. The venue itself is gorgeous.
