Great food and service as usual. View spectacular. Much more expensive than out last visit. Very crowded for a Sunday evening in September and a bit loud. But that is the measure of success.

It’s still great but we really miss the old Menu items. It’s a shame that so much has changed. But the place is still a home run.
