    My friend had some issues and the staff were kind enough to put him on the elevator to the men's room. Both servers were really exceptional. Denise Maw

    Delicious as usual! We went for Valentine’s Day and they had a special menu which forced us to try something new. Food was amazing as always. Service was great, ambiance was very romantic. It was a great dining experience.

    Great place to celebrate a special occasion. Can’t wait to check it out in the summer with their patio facing the lake!

    It was an amazing dinner and experience! Our waitress went above and beyond to make our night special! The specials offered were great, I had the chicken parm with spaghetti which was nice but I felt the chicken was a bit tough. Hince my 4 star on the food! My partner got the ravioli which was amazing! We loved how they made the night special for our anniversary and we will definitely return!
