This was a great first experience for me. What a great experience it was too. The food was great, the service was beyond our expectations. It is great to see motivated workers who seem to work very well together. The facility is absolutely fabulous and the food was by far the best I have had EVER! Thank you for a great first experience...I will be back.

From the moment we walked in, we knew it was going to be a special experience. We were greeted as soon as we stepped inside and then immediately escorted to our table. The server was extremely efficient and knowledgeable. She answered our questions and described the food selections perfectly. Everything we chose was delicious and the presentation was exquisite. The chef/owner came around and took time to talk with us about the area and the food. We could not have had a better experience.
