We had a lovely experience overall—the cocktails were spot on, and the calamari appetizer and pasta were solid. But what truly made the night was our server Courtney. She brought genuine warmth, attention to detail, and such professionalism to the experience. It’s rare to come across someone who clearly cares so much and handles everything with such grace. We left feeling lucky to have had her, and we’d come back for the service alone.
