    We were greeted by a gentleman, who seated 3 of us at our table with 2 more to arrive. The occasion was my wife's 77th birthday. Our waiter announced himself and poured us water and handing 5 menus to include the 2 on the way. Our tables were neat and the linen clean. The final two of our fivesome arrived and we all selected our fair for the occasion. The food was excellent and the waiter was attentive to the task. It was overall a very positive experience.
