    We celebrated 2 birthdays Saturday afternoon and it was such a special meal! Everything was perfect. The service was outstanding, the food was delicious and the overall experience was top tier. I have speech and hearing issues and our table was located at the very best place so we could completely understand and enjoy everything about this celebration. Thank you!

    Hands down the best restaurant value in Central Ohio. Food could be almost twice as expensive, and it would still be worth it.

    I celebrated my 50th Birthday here. The setting was very nice. The noise level tended to be a high moderate it was kind of hard to talk with my entire party. They were more than accommodating my reservation changes due to last minute add one. The food was amazing! When the time came they brought out my cake and they even put on a few candles. Our server Whitney was amazing as well. I highly recommend this place for a nice couples meal or any size party!
