David was wonderful. Noise level was high, maybe a little more space between tables is needed. Reception was efficient but could properly use a smile…but everyone has a bad day from time to time so it may have just been “one of those days”. 😊

Had a wonderful anniversary dinner at one of our go to places. Excellent service by David which started off with a glass of champagne on the house. Very classy gesture followed by relaxing dinner. The place was packed for a Monday night and suggest to make reservations. Won’t be disappointed

I went there with a friend to congratulate her on her new job. Our server was very courteous and attentive and our meal of the rib eye steak, petrale sole, and bananas foster bread pudding was perfectly cooked and delicious along with 2 margaritas and a glass of moscato! While the food was delicious, the price tag was on the high end at $176 before the tip.
