It was our 37th Wedding Anniversary and when we were seated, along came 2 glasses of bubbly and a congratulatory greeting from our Server. We had a sensational 4 course meal and at the end of the meal we were again surprised by a gorgeous, complimentary dessert “warm donuts with ice cream and chocolate script “Happy Anniversary”! What an incredible restaurant and Staff. We have a reservation pre- New Years Eve celebration, with our daughter and partner. It’s her Birthday dinner and it’s a surprise right now. Wonderful experience, thank you “Earth”!

We meet relatives there every year for a holiday dinner. Although the place is perfect in every way the food this year was not as well done as years past. The beet in my Warm Beet Salad was not cooked through, my snapper, while the salsa verde was delicious, was way over cooked, and the piece was so small I was still hungry! For the price of the prix fixe, I expect a delicious satisfying meal. We may look elsewhere for next years holiday dinner
