    They were open on Christmas and really saved the day! We were promptly greeted and seated. Wait staff was exceptional. The back waiter suggested I not add cheese to my dish as it would might make it too salty. After tasting it, I realized she was right! I really appreciated her having this knowledge and not being afraid to share her suggestion. The atmosphere is lovely and although it was bustling, somehow the surrounding noise was not overwhelming. 5 of us who had never been all gave it 5 stars and will all definitely be going back!
