Our server Francine was excellent. She was friendly, informative, and attentive. The lighted menus are genius. All of us enjoyed our meals immensely. Favorites were the calamari appetizer, lamb chop entree, and carrot cake dessert. I’m looking forward to dining there again in the near future. Maybe experience their filet mignon flight or indulge in the tomahawk paired with a wonderful wine from their extensive list.

Everything was amazing. There was 1 issue, though. We kept on getting fruit flies flying on and around on our table and plates. Pretty annoying. We are in the middle of winter and fruit flies usually are present in the warmer months. That’s concerning. If they are out in the dining room then they are definitely in the kitchen. Thank you
