   Very few places open on thanksgiving night. Good option with smaller family gathering and not wanting to host. Only negative is slow service with smaller staffing but understandable with thanksgiving holiday

   Food was delicious. Server and cook were both very kind and efficient. The exhaust system over the tables were not efficient. Very smokey throughout the restaurant

   Very slow service. Sat and waited for a chef for over an hour. Food was good once served.

   I missed my concert due to very delayed service. The waitress did not bring our drinks. The other people at the table were brought their drinks when we had already paid and were about to leave

   I made an 8:30pm reservation and we were not seated until 9:30pm. I had my two year old niece with me and she was getting antsy and when the server brought out drinks he gave my niece her milk last even though everyone could clearly hear her asking for milk. Just not very good customer service l, which is not my usual experience. The server wasn’t very into it and it just was a very disappointing experience.
