    Although I understand the need to limit time at the table, I have never felt so rushed to move along at a restaurant ; it was a birthday celebration, and my table experienced a non-stop sense of frenetic dining, to get us out.

    Both the food and the service were very good. The tables were very close together which made for a lot of overlapping conversations and a generally loud atmosphere.

    Terrible. Our table was so lop-sided that our glasses would slide off. It was like being on the ocean, in a boat during a storm. When I asked a waiter help he rolled his eyes and just walked off. So we did too. The nice young lady upfront asked as we were leaving, told her. She offered to locate a different table. ??We had to walk out to get someone to help. Never again.
