Had an absolutely wonderful time, every dish was incredible and the service was top notch. Really liked the live music that was piped up into the dining area. It was done perfectly. Great place for a business meal, I highly recommend it, it's not inexpensive but I 100% think I got great value for the meal.

Salmon and asparagus were great. NY strip had good flavor but was chewy. Drinks were good. I had a brown sugar old fashioned. I don't think the table had been wiped off because there were rings of stickiness, but the service was good.
