Had a lovely dinner with my family that was in town for the week. Our food and service were both fantastic! We really enjoyed seeing the restaurant manager being so hands-on and attentive to guests. They had a DJ that was playing all guest requests, a fun atmosphere!

Our party of two ate here for a birthday celebration. The service was cordial and very good. The food was outstanding--the best I have had for some time in a restaurant. My one disappointment was that the glass of wine arrived fairly promptly while the mixed drink did not arrive at the table until more than 10 minutes later--after we were mostly done with our salad--unacceptable .
