The service provider, Michelle, went out of her way to comfort our young daughters. The promptness of the entire service and attention to detail was exceptional. We will certainly return.

Adam, our waiter, was excellent; both efficient and personable. The food was quite good. Restaurant was virtually empty when we went, but think it would be loud when there’s a band performing live in stage. Lots of hard surfaces for sound to bounce. Great alternative to Fredericksburg restaurant and the beer and wine selection is good.
