    While the restaurant was totally packed for our 4:45pm reservation, our server was exceptional and made sure to be as attentive as possible. The food was excellent and while the prices may seem expensive, the quality of food is very high and I think the prices are extremely fair. We ordered the New York strip, roasted chicken, and burger as well as a side of cauliflower which was incredible. I would absolutely return.
