⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 epic.

That meal was to die for. Staff is perfectly trained and managed. Nothing but joy. Take my money please!

The holiday decor was just lovely. I’m not easy to impress.

There is some magic being done in that kitchen.

Service was excellent the servers go above and beyond. The owners really need to learn to respect the staff. Bad mouthing a staff member to the guest and other staff members is extremely rude. You’re running a business that serves good food it won’t survive without employees! Maybe think twice about who you complain about too or the things you say under your breath in front of other people.

Very pleasant and friendly staff. The food is very good.
