    Exceptional as always. The oysters were great and bread additive. Steak was perfect, Billion Dollar potato always very good. Husband enjoyed his salmon. Service by Josh was on spot on. What a delightful person. Celebrated a birthday with this thoughtful dessert. Just right after a full meal.

    The food, drinks, dessert, experience as a whole was extremely pleasant! I went for my birthday celebration and they had everything tailored and catered. I enjoyed every minute of it. If I had to leave a comment, it would just be that I read the valet was $10 and it was actually $15. I’m glad I had enough cash for that and tip. Other than that, it was solid 10! I highly recommend.

    This place was like a hidden gem! Maybe because I never looked into gluten free food options until I had to. But everything was incredible! The location is super cute, they have great mocktails (if you don’t drink) and the food is outstanding! I will definitely be back.

    Fabulous! I went there with my girlfriends, mom, & her friend and we had a fabulous time! It’s very trendy, popular, and new so there’s a few kinks in the service area that need work but the food and atmosphere was AMAZING!! We had such a good time! Our server was so great! We did get some things like silverware and drinks out late but overall I highly recommend and can’t wait to go back!
