    Brought my social dining group again, had some communication probs. On diner was served the wrong drink, one salad was late and untimely, got one check after agreeing to 2, slow cold soup. Highlights were the seating staff, especially Brin, and phone staff. Quality atmosphere without being stuffy or formal. Will try again.
