Went there with several friends for a New Years Catch-Up. Sat at high tops in bar area because it was quieter. Our server was great - our food was great, but then something odd happened. As soon as our dessert arrived, the server said she had to close out our bill (not sure why). We paid and that was the last we saw of her or anyone. No refills on drinks, no clearing of table - nothing. We finally had to go get a busser to clear our table. We were there for 1 1/2 hours - and it wasn’t overly crowded - so I don’t know why the service abruptly stopped.

I celebrated a birthday and the environment was perfect for a celebration dinner. There’s both an indoor and outdoor section, and the outdoor section plays the movie for the night. The indoor section doesn’t have a full view of the movie, but it wasn’t a personal issue for me as it was moreso an ambiance thing. I wouldn’t mind trying the outdoor section one day, though. As a note, food portions weren’t exactly plentiful, however, if split family style it can definitely work! The salad, oysters, and steak were all delicious. Service was also very friendly and accommodating. Overall, I would definitely come back for special occasions.
