The restaurant was crowded. Yet the noise level was not overpowering. The greeters at the check-in were friendly. Our server, Peter Axelsen was awesome!!! He recommended a mocktail that was the best drink ever. We appreciated the restaurant managers stopping by our table to check on us twice. The food was superb.

Food excellent as always, and our server was very helpful. The turkey French dip, my go to sandwich, was delicious. Great take on a classic. It can get a bit loud at lunchtime.
