   I would have given 5 stars on service because most were very attentive but our first waiter disappeared for a bit. Other than that, everything was fantastic. The food was in point and once everything was ironed out the servers were wonderful. I would highly recommend this place.

   Poor service and very disorganized with their reservation system. We arrived for a 7:15pm reservation and we can barely checked in. They have multiple hostesses in the front trying to figure out where to seat people. I had to say “excuse me” to get their attention just to check in. Just to find out we had to wait. Well we waited for more than 30 min to be seated. My husband and were not the only ones waiting. After checking in, we found a table at the bar. A nice couple let us have it after they left. Rocky (or Rocco?) was tending to us and he was very kind giving us bread and making sure we were ok. Drinks were delicious so compliments to the bartenders! Other than that, service was lacking with the front and there’s just way too many people. Seating was just so crowded compared to the Irvine location. We were seated in the back so we were getting bumped into. The meats didn’t come to us a lot as well. Our waiter, Benny, nice guy was too busy but made sure we had our waters and drinks filled. Anyway, I don’t think we will be back to this location.

   First of, the only good thing I would say was the valet parking, didn’t rate the food because we didn’t even get a taste of it, made a reservation for 6:30pm, upon arrival we were told that we have 6 parties in front of us waiting for their tables. We weren’t the only ones, there were two more parties with the same 6:30pm reservation and were told the same thing.

    Horrible service, took over 20 mins and asking two employees for us to get drink refills. Same thing when we requested some lamb, took over an hour and asking twice to have some brought to us. The tables are so close together that it makes navigating to the salad bar difficult without bumping into other dinners. The waiters serving the meat must be a horrible job because none of them were friendly.
