Food was great, wait staff was a bit pushy, our reservation was for 845, they called us to say the kitchen was closing at 9. Why accept an 8:45 reservation if your kitchen closes at 9. We had to rush order and felt like the staff was rushing us. Definitely go early!

Good menu of choices and the quantity was abundant The starter salad and soup were excellent. Could have used more help in the cooking part but the staff was really busy as the restaurant was 100% full.
November 2025
This was a fun experience with my team members during a work conference. We had a great variety of food to share and something for all tastes and appetites. We had a blast.

The downside is the restaurant feels dirty and the rest room was terrible.
