    This is one of our favorite places to dine and drink great wine. Unfortunately, our last two visits have been for the Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve events. Both times the service was less than acceptable. When you make a reservation a month in advance and then get asked to sit at the bar when it’s your Birthday and Christmas Eve that is unacceptable and then everything was so rushed. Do not take my plate off of the table while I am still eating it do not take away my glass of wine when there is still wine in the glass over and over again if you can’t handle these events, then don’t put them on. I should not have to feel rushed, especially on a special occasion. I am a first responder so I have to work the holidays and I take advantage of these event offerings on the holidays because we love this place and then to be treated like all you wanna do is push us out the door so you can go home is unacceptable. And since when is it acceptable after we pay our tab for you to come and take the check off my table while I’m still sitting there finishing my drink. Wait until I get up and leave the table! Debating whether or not I will return for one of those events again. All other visits have been amazing.

    My Husbands ribeye steak was perfect, baked loaded potatoe delicious, my salmon on spinach salad was excellent - glad I asked for medium rare for salmon! Don't like dry salmon. ( Waiter said they usually prepare medium well!) My Mom's burger was over done- bun wasn't warm- wouldn't get again. But steak and salmon were wonderful!

    Fabulous as always!!! The champagne and seafood tower are top notch. You can’t beat it. My kids absolutely love the filet mignon and sweet potato casserole, and you can’t be ending every meal with the cheesecake.!
