I made a reservation for 2. We got there everything went well till our waiter stared to take her time with things and often would come back to apologize for the wait. Usually I am not one to complain about waiting. Unfortunately they sat a couple next to us 5-10 after we sat at our table and we where able to see how there waiter got their drinks on time, food on time, desert on time and they got to leave before us meanwhile … we where still waiting. It was definitely not the place I loved the vibe but our waiter was not it.
