The food and drinks were outstanding, everything was perfection, couldn’t have been any better. Our server was good, the place was pretty loud but luckily we were sat on the outer border so we weren’t surrounded, and tables are well spaced out. It was a concert crowd so that could be why. Everyone at our table (3 generations) had a great time, we talked about the food all night, it was that good!
