   Our waitress was great. It was crowded but she was very friendly and attentive. She kept the mimosas flowing the entire time we were there. The food was good too. We will definitely come again.

   Food was delicious and good music. Just make sure you double check that you get all the food that you are paying for.

   The food was delicious, and the dinner was reasonably priced. However, the restaurant was packed, which overwhelmed the staff and resulted in poor table service. To make matters worse, they never brought us champagne, even though it was included in the price. Overall, it was a decent experience.

   The food was ok. Not as good as it normally is. The waiter was wonderful but it took over one hour from ordering to get our food. Yes it was a holiday and very busy but they had a pre-fixed menu with limited options so the food should’ve been much faster. The kicker was using Opentable to make the reservation and selecting a time… apparently they decided instead of a 15 Minute grace period to check in.. that it was suddenly 10 minutes. Then the hostess says to me “well it’s 5:58 and we only have a ten minute grace period tonight.” So I said “well we’ve been waiting to check in and you have been taking a long time to check everyone in, so how was I supposed to check in faster?” Then she says “ well I’ll make the exception this one time.” No you’re not making an exception… you’re doing your damn job. Then with a baby in my arms, and a reservation saying “standard seating” they go to seat us in the bar. So then we had to argue and wait for a standard table. Then when seated we weren’t given menus or a high chair and after ten mins I got them myself. Our waiter was great. The bussers were great.

    We were there celebrating the wedding of my daughter and son in law and we couldn’t have been happier. Making the reservation was easy and we were served quickly and the food sitters was amazing.
