Our waiter And servers were professional and pleasant. The food was excellent. My pork chop was delicious! The pistachio martini was also excellent. There was a fairly large table toward the back of the room that was extremely loud. That was the only negative part of our experience.

The restaurant was decorated beautifully for the holidays. The waitress was attentive and helpful. Nice selection on the menu but pretty pricey. Food was very good and nice size portions. We were able to sit and enjoy our friends without feeling rushed.
