    Food was amazing as always. Service could be better - servers need training when serving and taking plates away. Had to lean sideways a few times to avoid a tray in my face or a knife in my eye. Had to look for a server every single time and asked for water a few times before receiving any.

    Servers are very thoughtful and polite, and usually very attentive whenever we’ve gone there. But with the number of guests, there were not enough staff and parts of our order were forgotten. The food is always terrific but unfortunately last night the service could’ve been much better.
