It was my birthday and I could not have been happier - only the bread seemed like it was stale and warmed up in the microwave

Food was good. However, one of the diners at our table was allergic to shrimp. I think it could have been handled better. It threw off the meal. Not the customer or the chefs fault. I think the shrimp appetizer should have been cooked in the kitchen and brought out while the chef was cooking the vegetables. And any shrimp with the meals done the same way. Timing could have been better. The shrimp appetizer and the ones with the meals came at the end and there was still an item that needed to be cooked for the party with the person with the allergy so defeated the purpose of cooking them last.
