We eat here regularly but have never taken advantage of the family style option on Sunday and it was AMAZING! The value was incredible and we will be back for more! The chef must have been on his fans tonight because it was the best it’s been in a year.

Absolutely Delicious food, super friendly Waitress, and the atmosphere was lovely. Long wait to be seated, $$$$$, and it was a long dinner (we were there for almost 3 hours).
