    We come here all the time at least every other week, and we also bring out of town guest here cause it’s one of our two favorite restaurants in the area. As always, we met a reservation through OpenTable at 7 PM on Saturday. We arrived about 10 minutes early and the restaurant was very busy. Other people were waiting to be seated. After our reservation time at past, my husband asked a lady at the front must’ve been a manager of some kind, not one of the hostess gals, how much longer. We waited until several other people come in tables of four that we’re getting seated before us. Maybe they had a reservation or maybe not? Maybe they didn’t. We didn’t know. Again, my husband returns and asked the same lady what was going on and she tells us never heard this in any restaurant we down at a lot she tells us they didn’t have a two top available so they were just seeing four tops so she sat three tables of four before us we’re about to leave. And she said when you said I can give you a free appetizer I wanted to say lady I don’t want a free appetizer. I wanna sit down and have my meal. We ended up sitting at the bar and Meredith took care of us. She’s awesome. She knows how to provide great service very friendly always around. She save the night for us and for you. Meredith should be acknowledged for going above and beyond. I do have to say, though the lady told us it’s a policy of the restaurant we’ve been going there for seven years consistently and I’ve never had that happen and we’ve never seen that happen in any other high-end restaurant in this area or anywhere we’ve ever lived knowing that now not sure how often will be able to return because we are only typically a party of two. Thank you, Betty S

    Booked a reservation an hour before close was greeted by the host extremely kindly. Got seated shortly after arriving, and was serviced by Blake and he did phenomenal. Food was amazing. I always go for the french fries and the crab claws, I tried the Salmon served over curry and it was seasoned perfectly, I would definitely order again.
