Outstanding service from the staff, very informative, willing to answer questions and give suggestions for what to do in the city. The chef was able to accommodate the course meal for a vegetarian diet and still delivered a great experience.

Great place to eat out West for a change of pace :-) Pros: 1. Great food same as last time I ate there. 2. Great service from the wait staff with multiple check ins to see how we are doing. 3. Great atmosphere during both daytime and nighttime hours. Cons: 1. Noise level was a little high in terms of not being able to hear someone else talking in my party who is sitting two table lengths away from me. 2. Try not to sit directly under the AC if you're dining indoors. You will get cold along with your food very quickly. 3. Some of the entrees prices for dinner are extremely high. I understand making a profit but try to stay within reason. Burgers at the most should be around $10 and not $20. Overall, still a great place to go. Just watch what you're spending and you'll be fine.
