We had a truly wonderful experience! It was our first time here and we were greeted by several of the family staff who run this amazing establishment. Service was outstanding, enthusiastic, and friendly and our waiter made sure we were completely satisfied with our meals. We ordered the steak tips and the full rack of ribs, and they came out perfectly in record time. Bar service was excellent, and I could not decide between all the amazing dessert options, so we got the whiskey bread pudding and the cherry infused chocolate cake—both were delicious! We were thanked with warm fresh chocolate chip cookies on the way out. This is how great restaurants operate—giving the customer a fabulous, fun, delectable experience with a generous side of hospitality!!! We will be back!!!
