    Food was not good. Had the steak and lobster and it was a Valentine’s Day special. The appetizer wings were warm, like they had been sitting for awhile. Drinks were ok. Definitely a 5/10.

    Loved our experience. There was live music which was a lovely addition to the atmosphere. Joseph was our waiter and he was very attentive to the table’s needs. This was our first time and for a birthday celebration. Everyone enjoyed their experience!

    Great vibe and ambience. Our waiter Angel was outstanding. Very professional and fun. Great food. The pretzel fondue is excellent! First visit and will definitely return. GM Sean stopped by the table, which was appropriated.
