    We had the table that we requested and the most gracious service all evening. The food was delicious - salmon with roasted vegetables, scallops, apple salad, pizza for our party of six. Everything was cooked and presented perfectly and followed up with a most creamy and delicious tiramisu. We were having a reunion with old friends and we stayed til the restaurant closed. They were so hospitable to us all evening. Highly rec this great restaurant for wonderful food and a comfortable experience!

    My husband and I had a reservation and were seated right away on the bridge room, very nice. We were asked what kind of water we wanted for our table and told our server, Evelyn would be right over to take our order, which she did. She took our cocktail order and when they were served she took our dinner order. My husband had the foil gras mousse and I had the tapioca custard appetizer. For entrees he had the scallops and u had BBQ short rib. For dessert we shared the s’mores. Everything was excellent .
