    Food was delicious & service was very good. We had a less than ideal experience communicating with the restaurant prior to our dinner via email. The restaurant phone did not work. We were told via email that there was only room for 6 of us max (we tried to add on 2 family members a few days prior). We told our 2 family members that they couldn’t join us only to find a nice table for 8 when we got there. Hopefully communication will improve.

    Other than the very loud group next to our table, the experience was great. I made a last minute reservation, was 15 minutes late, and was still able to secure my table through text to indicate I was on my way. The food and drinks were great, especially the Brussels sprouts. I just wish they would reconsider how the Caesar salad is presented. And thanks to Joseph, our waiter.
