    I eat at this restaurant quite often….However, last night (Valentine’s Day) the restaurant was packed and I received some of the best service I have ever gotten there!! Danalia was our server and she was tremendous! The entire staff ran like a well oiled machine! Not one of the managers were standing around….all of them were running food, bussing tables, wiping up the floor….in short, leading by example!! It was such a pleasure dining there and witnessing was great service looked like. WELL DONE!
