    Fantastic thanksgiving experience — too much food but that is part of the holiday. Fortunately they were so kind in packing up leftovers — fresh portions of stuffing were given instead of giving you your actual leftover. Stellar place.

    The food and ambiance was over the top. Our meals were scrumptious! Each bite was a true pleasure. Can’t wait to return! The bathrooms were a bit of a disaster. Too many people without a pickup service. I mentioned it to the gentleman who was confirming guest reservations but he didn’t really care. Wine prices were a little ridiculous. But the meals and decor were 5 star! Thank you!!!
