Had a hiccup at our favorite go-to place. The chef totally screwed up my entree order. To their credit they comped the course and gave us some complimentary wine.

We love the Waygu burger event and sitting in the bar area. Our only issue this time was the burgers were all cooked well done and were ordered 2 medium and 2 medium rare but all came well done. Otherwise great time.

Food was outstanding, we had the calamari and clam chowder to start, then the lamb chops and citrus glazed salmon. The stoli doli martini was delicious. Staff was friendly and professional.

We dine here for every major anniversary. When I booked on OpenTable I made sure to annotate on the reservation it was a big one. Was disappointed that the usual table decorations were not in place. Our server greeted us with “A happy anniversary”, so they knew, another table did have decorations, not sure what went wrong. At the end of the meal, we had to ask for the customary complimentary dessert tray, awkward! Food was very good, my steak was overcooked, but I know how difficult it can be on such a thick steak, I did not say anything. Zack our server did a great job.
