    The service was excellent. Every member of staff who we came in contact with was engaging and interested in our questions or comments. Half of our party loved their entrees. The rest of us found the food good but not excellent. The mashed potatoes were especially disappointing. But again, the staff members were fantastic!

    I went for Thanksgiving dinner and was seated promptly. The wait staff was a little slow, but the place was moderately busy. The waiter was friendly and well-informed. We ordered from the holiday menu, which was a nice selection. We were a little disappointed in the amount of food and how it varied from the menu description. Desert was a must-share as it was very large and good. Will have to come back when it is not a holiday to give a full review.
