    When our order arrived at the table it was not what had been ordered and it was another 20 minutes before the correct food arrived. Water glasses were not refilled until the meal was over.

    Dined with a moderately sized group on a Friday evening. Attention to detail could have been better. Had to ask for things twice a couple of times. Food is always pretty great, service has been lacking in my opinion for the last couple visits we’ve made.
