    At first I was hesitant to go after reading the reviews, but I’m glad I went. This place was such a good choice. We made reservations for 7 on a Thursday. The place was quiet considering the amount of people that were there. As soon as we sat down we were immediately served with water. Not even a minute after our waitress came. The service was phenomenal!!!! The food and drinks came out very quickly . We both had the Rasta Pasta with oxtails which was amazing! After I asked the waitress if she could switch my drink (because of my own personal preference) she did with no problem and actually preferred something sweeter. The manager even came up to check on us after that. He was very funny cool and so down to earth. They didn’t charge us for the drink (which again because of my own taste nothing to do with them) and we insisted that they would and they said no lol. Overall I had a great first experience. I will be back!
