This restaurant was fantastic! We were visiting from out of town and booked for a birthday dinner and were not disappointed. Service was excellent, food was prompt and delicious and we had a great time. I would recommend booking indoors due to the traffic noise on the street, the ambiance was beautiful inside and we wished we had booked indoors, in retrospect.
