    Expensive overall. Service was slow. Waited more than 10 minutes to even be acknowledged. Drinks sat empty. Music was loud. Taste and appearance of the food was good and the drinks were good.

    We had a lovely evening out on the patio. The duo that performed, Gemini, was very good! They had a great song selection, nice variety. Those that were out there were engaged and singing along. They were great!!
