    We were there for Thanksgiving. The menu was a perfectly delicious traditional Thanksgiving meal. The ambience was casual with a stunning view of the mountains. We enjoyed sitting outside with the heaters on to keep the temperature just right.

    The service was very very slow and our waiter didn't check in very often. And the food for all of us was cold by the time it got to our table like it had been sitting. Sorry Escena, but that is what happened.
