    The service was great, and we loved our waitress. However the atmosphere and crowd was definitely lacking a vibe, and overall the restaurant is way too pricy for what it is. We won’t be coming back.

    Terrible service they make you put in your whole order so we did and we asked them to course it out - they then brought all the food at once - they kept bugging us to place an order when we were having drinks with a friend we hadn’t seen in a long time - after dinner they asked us to leave because they had another reservation - also they asked for a credit card to make the reservation - we will never go there again - MC

    Very limited staff and the waitress was very short with us from the beginning. We were continually ignored while the other patrons were tended to. The adult beverages had a funny taste and took a long time to be brought to us. Not to mention my husband’s food order was incorrect twice. Had the service and the food order been pulled together, I would have given at least a 4.

    Ambience was great. A little dark inside but I loved it. Customer service was A+ starting with the hostess at the front door. Food was a 10/10. Overall we were very pleased. Great for a date night, birthday celebration, or just dinner with family.
