    I have Celiac disease, they had a gluten free menu available with lots of options. The food was delicious. I can’t say enough about our waiter. It looked like he had the whole bar area and he was moving! But he was so attentive and helpful. My husband and I had such a lovely dinner. Thank you for a great memory.

    I put a note in the reservation that it was my birthday and they made me feel very celebrated! They gave me a birthday card, and the server and manager on duty made sure to wish me a happy birthday, and they also gave me a free chocolate torte for dessert with a candle! Food was delicious and the ambiance was lovely. I can’t wait to go back!
