We had a wonderful dining experience. Our server Allie made our evening enjoyable and she explained the dishes that we were ordering which helped us to decide. Allie was very professional and personable and we did not feel rushed as our appetizer, meal and dessert were brought to us with plenty of time to enjoy them. It is a nice quiet dining experience and the food was just amazing. We will be back again.
