    Terrific dinner to celebrate my husband’s birthday! The hostess was friendly and attentive when we arrived, seated timely for our reservation. The pop overs and roasted Brussel Sprouts were perfect for appetizers. My husband had the burger which he loved. I had the chicken which was great. Tasty and well prepared. We were too full for dessert and the server surprised us with a birthday cookie and candle which was a perfect ending to a lovely dinner! Our server Vanessa was terrific! Lovely, attentive and sweet. One of the best servers out there! The runner and all the staff worked well together to take care of us and all guests.

    The waitress was really friendly. Service was awesome and the food was really, really great. We got the steak tartare for a starter and that was really good. Then my husband got the short rib ravioli and I got the salmon, both were excellent. Overall experience was awesome, would definitely recommend!
