    It started off rough as the hostesses didn’t know what to do when I had a reservation made at 7 PM, two tables were available in the designated section but yet they still made us wait over 20 minutes before seeing us. The manager came, tried to defend the hostesses, not making sense about keeping the two tables for other reservations, which I don’t think is more important than my reservation. The second disappointment was when the manager volunteered to pay for some drinks and appetizers to make it up to us which never happened. I’ll think about returning to that location.

    Went for a graduation celebration brunch, and we very much enjoyed the experience. Our server, Alicia, was the highlight of the experience. She was very kind and on the ball. The food was excellent, as always, and the ambiance was lively.

    Great food, venue and service. It was loud but it’s a great evening venue. Food was a bit pricey but it was so good, so it’s worth it.

    The food was tasty and well presented. The service was good although we had to remind the server to bring the tea we ordered. The birthday girl was made to wait on her dessert (a few minutes) while all other guest had already received theirs…we had to bring this to their attention (thos was disappointing). For these reasons I give a 4/5 * rating.
