    Owner was polite to explain why I didn't receive my food till almost everyone in our group was done eating but did nothing to comp or discount or even offer a free dessert. It was very busy and the food was good but the server was stretched so thin that it took asking for ketchup 3 times before she actually brought it. For Easter it was pretty disappointing. I highly doubt we will be going back.

    Thank you for the feedback Anthony, our goal is give every guest the best experience regardless of how busy we are and we truly apologize for letting you down. When there is an issue we usually follow up with a dessert or a refund and also missed that therefore refund will be provided for your meal. We do hope you give us another opportunity when you are back in town.

    Coming through the door we are greeted immediately. Staff are very pleasant and attentive. As well as the manger. Frequent checkins are very much appreciated! Food and drinks were excellent. Reservations for dinner highly recommend. We can’t wait for patio season!

    We were the only people in the restaurant, which was the main contributor to a mediocre experience. The food was okay. A non-alcoholic beer on the menu would have been nice.

    The food was amazing, i loved the piano player he was very entertaining. Drinks were top notch i had a blackberry margarita. I went for valentines day and the menu was amazing 4 courses for 75 dollars what a deal.. Disappointed that some of those items are not on the regular menu. My favorite was the coconut cheesecake by far. I can't wait to go back for brunch!

    What a fabulous place! Excellent food - Jerk Chicken & Short Ribs were great. But the real winner is the service and the feeling that you are being cared for. Nothing phoney here. Thanks for a great evening.

    Services were amazing. The staff is so kind. I did order a medium streak and the inside was actually raw. They apologized and corrected the issue right away, the only sad thing was my eggs were no longer runny by the time I got my steak back, but they were kind enough to give me an extra side and were always checking in on beverages or any thing else. Highly recommend!
