Truly wonderful experience. Jazz band started as we sat down and played at just the right volume to have a conversation and jiggle to the tunes. We were very close to the stage and the waiter was attentive and good humoured. Food was delicious and cocktails were very satisfying. Will be back!

The food was excellent, and it came out fast. But in reality, it all came down to the service. Not only the wait staff, but the management, bus personnel, and everyone else working there. I forgot my wallet and they tore the restaurant apart until it was found. Above and beyond, not just a great restaurant but great people. Thank you!
