The Ultimate Feast with two lobster tails was so good! The bartender did forget the gold glitter in my Snow Globe martini, but it was still yummy. Our waiter was really good. The host was especially friendly and even hauled out a lobster so I could touch it. He told me they spit when they are mad, who knew!? I was disappointed that at two days after Thanksgiving there were still absolutely no holiday decorations. Hopefully they will put them up this week.

Using Open Table to get on the list is perfect for weekend nights when places tend to be more busy during peak times. Our meal was great, our server was amazing, very friendly, very attentive, and you don't always get that anymore. My only complaint about this particular location is that it needs a serious table and seating remodel! Our booth's vinyl was peeling, the table had a lot of chips in it, and we have sat in other booths that have had vinyl peeling or holes in it. During the down time of Covid would have been a great time to do that like many other places did. But I'm guessing that they are also still trying to recover from the financial losses as well. I hope their corporate office does them a solid and gets that taken care of soon. Otherwise, our night was great!
