Fantastic dinner and service. Luke was a great server. Only complaint was a family at a table near us that thought it was ok to yell, allow their kids to run around and even allow their toddler to take his clothes off and run around in a diaper. Im not snobby but this was a bit much for the quality you expect at Banyan Tree. Again, great dinner and service which we have come to expect and enjoy at Banyan Tree.

The food was awesome, and our server, Lucas, was great. As we waited 30 minutes for our table (we were early), we sat at the bar for a drink. We were given a menu, but no one came back to take our order.
