The service is outstanding from the minute you walk in. The ambiance is beautiful. The noise level was a bit high. The food was amazing, the beef spring rolls, wash house salad and filet was on point!

Amazing and delicious first time experience. Staff had to deal with some incoming bad weather in the area so worked with us to move up our reservation so everyone could get in and out before the weather arrived. Despite the last minute changes; staff handled it all flawlessly. Food and service were excellent. Can’t wait to come back.
