    Made a reservation for 3 for a work holiday lunch. Sat us in Michael’s section and he did wonderfully!! First time at this location and overall it was better than the downtown location. Ample parking in a paved lot. Beautifully decorated and more spacious than downtown. Food was good, service was good, noise level wasn’t as bad as other reviews have said. We will definitely be back!!

    The servers, bartenders, etc. were phenomenal! Our waitress was well versed in the menu, not how to make suggestions, engaged at the appropriate level, meaning she kept the water glasses and are needs met without hovering.
