    My wife and I were there on Monday, June 30, 2025, celebrating our wedding anniversary and cannot thank our server, "Kai Yuan H"enough. We were offered a complimentary dessert for our special occasion and even though we refused due to our low sugar diet restrictions, Kai did not give up on us and went "above and beyond" to serve us a beautiful low sugar dessert that was perfect for us and completed our amazing dining experience. On our way out, we waited to speak with her manager so we could let her know how happy we were with our server tonight and cannot thank Kai enough for making our wedding anniversary such a wonderful experience.

    Yesterday's early lunch at the Public House was idyllic. This spot never disappoints, in fact, with each visit I am more enchanted. The food was great. Drinks were generous, tasty and chilled and the server was phenomenal. She was friendly, sweet and efficient. She kept a close eye on our drinks and check in with us a number of times to see that we had all that we needed. A delightful lunch.
