One of, if not, the best meal I’ve ever had at a restaurant. Everything was perfect and delicious! The oysters and the fall vegetable pasta were incredible! Our server Mikayla was terrific! Very welcoming and friendly! The renovations to the dinning room and mezzanine and board room were absolutely stunning! Definitely the best dining experience I’ve ever had!
