Our server, Ross, was outstanding and the food came out of the kitchen very fast. Loved the trout!. We lingered at the table after dinner and didn't feel at all rushed to leave so they could turn over the table. The restaurant was busy but the noise level was low and made it easy to have a conversation. The only drawback was I ordered the house wine and was charged $18.00 for the glass. I think it was a mistake but we didn't question it at the time. Next time, we will make sure to know what the charge for the glass will be!

We were a group of six, in the area for a meeting, and were very well fed and looked after. Our server Kayla listened to our preferences, and made great suggestions from the menu. Our food came out quickly, and was hot and delicious. An excellent restaurant choice… highly recommended!
