    This has become a regular stop when wanting a fun and good dinner. The menu is different, changing, and always good. Management recognizes and acknowledges us, as we always book through OpenTable. We enjoyed the tuna appetizer, the two fish entrees, key lime dessert, the fancy nightcap on the dessert menu, all very good. Of course all good things come at a price. We will return in the near future.

    Outstanding meals and drinks! The Lamb was probably one of the best I have ever had. ( Sorry, Grandma) The chips and dip appetizer was delicious (No, it's not chips and salsa) Now let's get to the cocktails. If you are a bourbon fan, this place is for you! Allocated bottles galore. So many specialty cocktails and all of them are presented very well! Go try this place, the GM Eric will come over and talk bourbon if you have questions. We had a great time! Salute

    Table for 4 @ 6:30pm on a Saturday. Seated promptly. Server greeted us and asked if we would like something to drink, I had a high proof cocktail. Young lady followed behind in a reasonable time to fill our glasses with water. Our food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. I had the ravioli, and it was delicious. The noise level did make converstion a bit of a challenge. All in all it was a pleasant evening. The other members of the party commented that their dishes were delicious as well. A bit on the pricey side, but worth it for the occasional splurge .

    Server was disinterested. Food was slow, expensive, and mediocre to poor. It was LOUD and freezing cold for everyone in our party. It was disappointing. Second disappointing visit there (out of two visits). Won’t be back.

    The food is always delicious and the drinks (both alcoholic and NA) always hit the spot. Great place for dinner, happy hour, etc.

    Food options were good and service was excellent. If you’re interested in making tik tok videos it might be more up your alley as it seemed that was the attraction over the drinks and food

    We went for Mother’s Day brunch and it was excellent. Everything was made with full flavor, executed perfectly and generous family portions. Plus mom felt special. I have no critiques and loved the experience

    We went on one of the first warm nights of the spring and loved sitting outside. The wine recommendation from our server was perfect. I enjoyed the meal and appreciated the presentation.
