    We booked this restaurant to celebrate some December birthdays. Our party of 6 absolutely enjoyed our meal. The service was fantastic. They walked through the menu and made suggestions on portions to order for the size of our group. The table was constantly cleared of empty plates and always asked if anything was needed. They were also sure to consider any allergies in the group. The food was amazing! We were able to try a number of dishes as well as the sets and ribeye. For the meat, they cooked it at the table and was excellent. Will be back in the future.

    Making the reservation was easy and we were seated right away when we arrived. It took a little bit for a server to come at first but the food arrived very soon after we ordered. My salmon was hot and very delicious. My husband had the chicken Parmesan which he said was good but a little cold. I also had the French Alexander drink which was very good! Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.
