    My husband & I went here for the first time for our 12th anniversary dinner. Our server, Dennis, was very nice & friendly. We had a 8pm reservation. There were other guests in the restaurant at the time but it wasn’t crowded like we thought it would be. But it was still a little noisier than expected. really enjoyed the atmosphere/ambiance, the food & the service was good too. The only thing I really didn’t like, nor appreciate, was the fact that we chose to have our anniversary dinner at this restaurant, & I let them know this when I made the reservation, so when we ordered (2) separate desserts, we thought we would’ve gotten one as a complimentary dessert for our anniversary but we did not! Most other nice, fancy restaurants we’ve been to in the past for our anniversary have given us a free dessert but this place didn’t! Also, even though it’s nice that they have free parking behind the restaurant, it was kind of odd that we had to walk from the back, through the whole restaurant, passing other guests tables, just to get to the host desk. They really should have a host desk in the back too. Other than that, we enjoyed the restaurant & we will definitely go back again.

    Food was amazing, especially the sea bass. Service great - they rushed to get us out on time for a movie. Beautiful restaurant. The only downside is the noise level, it’s really really loud. Next time I’ll request a booth or corner table somewhere, because the center of the main dining room is so loud you can barely hear your dinner partners.

    Wasn’t impressed. Drinks basic $23.00 (1each) . Plain chicken she had pasta and no appetizer shared dessert bill was over $230.00. Food was not over the top for that price. Won’t be going back. Much better close by
