    Wonderful place, music is awesome but way to loud. You can barely hear yourself talk. Service is so so, quick to take your order but nonexistent to replenish water or see if everything is ok. Ordered deviled eggs, they use a red food coloring and that may be something you list on the menu as it stained my hands. Eeeehhhhh…not sure if I would return.

    Delicious food in generous portions, friendly and gracious service, extraordinary hospitality, reasonable prices. The only minus: Our entrees took an unusually long time to emerge. But that could have been an anomaly. And they were well worth the wait.
