I arranged a business dinner for originally 10 people. During the week the number and time changed last minute to sooner and more people. Everyone was very polite and accommodating. All of my executives were very pleased with the service, the food and the atmosphere. I will definitely be booking again. JGV

Awesome restaurant, second time here. Came in for Father's Day dinner what a great experience. Food, service and the ambiance was superb. Parking available next to the restaurant which is convenient.

The food was pretty decent—flavorful and satisfying overall. However, the service was mediocre at best. For a place that adds a service charge and still expects a tip, I expected much more attentiveness and professionalism. Not terrible, but definitely room for improvement.
