    We know the owner and loved the service staff and the food. The hard surfaces along with large groups made for a relatively high level of noise. I guess that means it is a popular place for all the good reasons ~!!

    Great food and services. The tomahawk ribeye was excellent. Our only complaint was for a reservation for our anniversary we were seated at the smallest table by the kitchen with the air conditioning vent right above us.
