The waiter was very kind and helpful. However, the gentleman at the entrance was extremely unpleasant and not suited for this type of establishment. I have rarely encountered someone so rude in a restaurant. Despite this, we had a great time—the dishes were delicious, and the table service was perfect.

Tony and Janae were amazing. I put that it was my boyfriend’s birthday in the reservation notes and they knocked it out of the park. From the host, to the managers and servers..they made our evening together so special. We greatly appreciated everything they did for us, the food was incredible! 10/10! -Erinn & Tim
