Came back here because of a gift certificate I received because my last experience was mediocre. But they made up for it. Went for lunch, had a good table,and a wonderful server. The manager saw yo it that this was an excellent visit. Food was delicious and prices were not that high. I recommend going just be prepared for some noise.

Our waitress Jessica was great, very attentive and accommodating. The African American security guard was very rude and overly aggressive for no reason. He does NOT need to work in a restaurant environment if he does not know how to handle himself.

I booked a table for 9 at 8:15, they texted me at 8:15 that my table was ready but when I went to the stand it wasn’t ready, they said it would be ready shortly. 30 minutes went by and I got another text, they could only seat us at a high top because our table wasn’t ready still. Terrible experience!

Very small area to stand so there so many high top smashed into each other. Staff can hardly get through to service properly. Very Loud even if your sitting next to one another. Small selection of item to order. Service was slow but felt sorry that they had to continue to push though these people stand around waiting for tables. Not my choice of restaurants especially to celebrate a special occasion.

Service was nice, as always. The macaroni gratin was so delicious. But the French onion soup was terrible. Here is how I describe it. Onion soup one day 1 (the day the onions are caramelized and the broth is cooked down for a few hours) is not the day to serve the soup. It needs at least one more day on the stove. Today, unfortunately, was day 1 soup. It was thin and the onions were not caramized. It was awful. Next time I am going to ask for a sample before ordering. Please learn the recipe.
