    Food wasn’t the best, servers were amazing - chair placement in the live music lounge was terrible sitting guest right by a speaker isn’t the best idea. Otherwise staff was great

    I made reservations with hopes of enjoying live music to find out upon arrival the schedule for live music was changed and it was DJ only. My overall experience was great. The food was tasty, customer service from all staff was excellent, the DJ and the ambiance was great.

    Valets in self-park overcharge. What is supposed to be $10, they are charging unsuspecting patrons $20. Diners are not given a receipt even when requested on the hand held device. Servers only indicate that a gratuity has been added when asked. A request for an additional tip with percentage recommendations make it appear as though no gratuity has been added already.

    Our waitress was really nice… the oxtail sliders were delicious I just wish they could’ve been a little hotter when it came out. Enjoy the truffle fries with the side sauce
