    An absolutely fantastic experience! Our waiter was amazing—she not only provided excellent service but also remembered my girlfriend’s and my names throughout the entire dinner, which made the experience even more personal and special. The food was just as incredible. I had the 10 oz filet with mac and lobster and the broccoli—easily a 10/10 across the board. My wife had the lobster linguine, which was just as exceptional. Overall, it was a perfect date night. Great food, outstanding service, and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend!
