    I was pleasantly surprised as a local about the service. I was made to feel no less than everyone else dining. My waiter Daemil, was the point of contact and really confirmed the authenticity of the experience. He was knowledgeable, gave real and helpful suggestions and was just so pleasant to speak to. It definitely made the experience and the night a success. The manager spoke with us after just to get our feedback and ensure we were having a good time. He has a winning team most likely because of his leadership, I will most definitely be returning. Oh and the food was fantastic!!!! the plating was thoughtful.

    The customer service upon arrival was exceptional. The meal took about an hour to prepare however, when it was served I wasn"t disappointed. The bill wasn't bad at all, I would definitely recommend this place for any occasion.
