I will get this place five stars. I came on a busy Friday night and even thought they were jammed back my waitress was attentive to my party. The food came in a fast, timely manner. I got a lemon drop martini and also the hummus with lamb. Will be returning soon.

Food was delicious. We loved the ambiance of sitting in the dining room. The patio looked nice too. Servers were great, gave the rating I did just because we only had 3 menus for 4 people and I had to wait for the server to come by the table to ask to place drinks. The apple strudel was heavenly and definitely worth ordering early so it finishes in time of the completion of dinner.
