    I had the pleasure of dining out last night, and my experience was made exceptional thanks to our server. From the moment we sat down, he was attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a great meal. His recommendations were spot-on, and he made sure our drinks were always full without us even having to ask. What really stood out was his positive attitude and attention to detail. He anticipated our needs before we even voiced them, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. It’s rare to come across someone who truly loves what they do, and it showed in the way he interacted with us.

    My friend and I had a wonderful dinner here last night. We ordered the pork belly and salmon skewers as a starter and then had the Mussels, Wedge Salad and Mac and Cheese which were all delicious. We had great service with Chris who was very attentive and professional. He introduced us to the sommelier for wine assistance as well. We really appreciated having a knowledgeable “wine guy” on staff. He even answered questions beyond the menu. He was enthusiastic, friendly and made a good recommendation based on our taste preference. (Sorry we do not remember his name or I would give him a shout out!) The small things from a service perspective were noticed. We had leftovers which Chris took away and boxed up for us. This is a great touch beyond handing your guest a box and having them do it themselves. He also took away my friend’s mussel shells mid-meal so she could continue with a nice clean bowl. We will be back again! Thanks for a great dinner and for having a wonderful staff who greatly added to our experience!
