He had a wealth of knowledge about the menu and was exceptionally sweet and kind. Unfortunately, the hostesses were not very friendly and seemed to have an attitude. However, thanks to our incredibly kind waiter, we were able to overlook the hostesses' demeanor. Overall, the food and the local wine truly stole the show!
