    Oh my gosh, I thought it was going to be a mad house. Not only was everyone relaxed and calm. Our waitress CiCi was the BEST!! We never had to look for her. We never had to ask for anything. She was a mind reader. Hands down the best server I have had in years! I told her there and then. Thanksgiving was amazing thanks to Coopers Hawk and CiCi!!! The food was perfection, the wait time non existent, drinks refilled as if she was a mind-reader...love love love this place. Our first time at this newly built establishment and would not hesitate to go again!! Delish!!!!

    As always, the food was amazing and the service was excellent! We had Zach as our server and he took the experience to another level. As Gordon Ramsey and Christina’s (self-proclaimed) #1 fans, Zach had a lot of stories to tell us about both. He even pointed out some hidden meanings of the restaurant’s design. Even though I had the best Thanksgiving meal of my life (sorry Mom!), Zach was the best part of our meal!

    We ordered the Thanksgiving special. Was slightly disappointed with the turkey it was more of a processed turkey not a turkey breast. The side dishes were delicious, the spiced bread pudding dessert was fabulous and the cocktails were spot on. The staff was as usual very attentive.
