    The restaurant was not busy on a Wednesday noon. Diego our server was attentive and pleasant. The food, fried chicken sandwiches ($20) was tasty. Wine ($16) and beer ($13) were fine but pricey. The view is magnificent. We enjoyed our leisurely meal. I imagine it is a different experience when the place is crowded as they said it often is. Strangely everyone was friendly except the hostess who greeted us initially. We arrived 2 minutes before noon and she scowled and told us to wait outside. Go figure.

    This was an overall great experience. Service and food were great and the seating comfortable. When we arrived we were struck by the very high noise level which sometimes makes it hard for a conversation. It was pretty crowded for a Wednesday evening. All the staff was very friendly, cheerful and efficient. Thank you!

    This a beautiful restaurant with delicious food and exceptional service. The appetizers were fabulous, all of us loved our meals, and the bread pudding was the best I’ve ever had. I had messaged ahead that my family needed a quiet, private table to discuss a cancer diagnosis. The compassion of the manager who greeted us when we arrived was so sincere, and all the staff members went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and given privacy. We will definitely return, hopefully next time when I’m cancer free! Thank you again for helping us through a difficult night.
