Great evening as usual, with outstanding apps and entrees. Calleigh was our server, and she was wonderful. The chicken lollipops, mussels, and pork belly sandwiches were served along with a cashewed halibut, and all were top notch. It's the consistent excellence that keeps us coming back. Thank you!

Service was very slow, but everything else was amazing. The sticky ribs and mushroom risotto were to die for. My margarita was a bit too spicy and the bartender fixed it perfectly and kindly.

The entire evening was exceptional. Our server, Emily, was attentive and engaging, without hovering. We were celebrating a birthday. The chef’s special touches, such as the chocolate walnut brittle, were very kind.

We had a fantastic experience for my birthday dinner last night. We ordered the Cashew Halibut and Filet, both were prepared perfectly and tasted amazing! Followed that with a chocolate mousse cake and blueberry cobbler and both were wonderful. Brian surprised me with a fun board of Birthday cocktails which I did not expect but totally made my night special! Our waitress was a pleasure too, thank you for a great experience!
