    We enjoyed our meal. Looked forward to celebrating New Year’s Eve there but thought the restaurant was brightly lit which took away from the atmosphere. They have one of my favorite desserts on the menu, bananas foster. However, we were told they weren’t serving it because of the holiday.

    While the food was pretty good, our experience was ruined by a very aggressive and weirdly uptight server. No “Hostess city” environment here

    A bit disappointing. Everything we ordered was either very salty or very spicy hot. Even the breading on my son's fish fry was a bit spicy. Not everyone enjoys foods super salty or supeer spicy, and I am one of them.

    The food and service were very good. But having two doors open when it was below 50 degrees outside meant we were cold enough to be uncomfortable throughout the meal — even with our coats on the whole time. All we wanted to do was finish and leave. Even though we enjoyed the food, it wasn’t enough to make up for how uncomfortable we were (especially considering the prices). We don’t plan to return.

    Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear that your experience was affected by the temperature. We understand how important comfort is when dining, and we will certainly look into ensuring better temperature control for our guests, especially during colder months. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the food and service, but we completely understand how the discomfort impacted your overall experience. We truly appreciate your input and hope you might give us another chance in the future.
