    I visit the restaurant quite often. It is always my “go to” place. It all starts with the manager, Kristen. She is always so welcoming. I know when I see her smile as I open the door, it will be another great night and meal. I see “regulars” at the restaurant all the time. Have gained so many friends over the years. Each experience is a new, memorable experience. I can’t thank Kristen, Bryan and all the staff enough for everything you have done for myself and my family. Recommend to all to visit this restaurant! Every dish is amazing and you will not leave disappointed. I hope to see you at the restaurant soon!! Nick

    Our server DJ was probably one of the best servers we've had in quite some time. He was willing to make recommendations when asked and everything he recommended was wonderful. We would definitely go back.

    My husband and I visited for Valentine’s Day. They had an awesome build your own prix fixe menu and for a great price. I did the three course with a wine pairing - selecting a starter, salad, and entree for $71. All the wine pairings were delicious and truly complemented the dishes. The Caesar salad was on of the best I’ve had in a long time. My husband did the four course and had the flexibility to choose what those four courses were - selecting two starters, an entree and dessert for $59. He raved about the cream of crab soup and lobster mac. He also was impressed by all the ice cream options for his dessert. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. We also made a last minute reservation and they accommodated us very nicely.

    The food selection is incredibly extensive and suited for all types of preferences. Our waiter came to our table instantly and we were checked on by the owners during our meal to ensure that our experience was what was expected. The portion sizes are incredible and the food, itself, was absolutely outstanding. We will DEFINITELY be back here again.
