                                            We had a reservation for dinner and were promptly seated upon arrival. Our waitress was very friendly and allowed us to take our time choosing drinks and entres. The only issue we had was my husband’s dinner arrived cold. But, I have to say the problem was quickly resolved. All and all we had a nice dining experience and will definitely return.

                                            This was our first time dining here. It’s a beautiful space and the ambiance was nice. The food was just ok - very price to not be amazing. The menu was limited due to NYE so the few dishes should have been the best they have. Overall just meh.

                                            Food is a bit overpriced but very delicious. Our waitress was fantastic. Alcoholic drinks are yummy. Ambience is great
