    Food was cold and service was average. For an upscale restaurant this is not acceptable.

    Experience was exceptional! Food and service were perfect. The only thing that would have made the ambiance better is if the piano player had stuck to hair his excellent piano skills and less to his over the top singing.

    Dear Opal, I thank you for the honest feedback and we will definitely pass along your input to our entertainment manager to ensure we have an amazing experience that enhances the dinner instead of taking away from it. We look forward to serving you again! Sincerely, Alex Rediske Service Manager
