This was a great example of what I’m looking for in a tasting menu. The service was friendly, attentive, and great about pacing. The food was well presented, excellently cooked, and terrifically portioned. Their mocktail program was very strong, and I enjoyed the music they played. I will definitely be going back when I can!

Service was 10/10- staff was patient, accommodating and flexible. Had my son’s 11th birthday party here with seven of his friends. The staff went above and beyond to ensure it was a great time.
