We had reservations for 7 people at seven. When we got there we were told there was no reservation but for us not to worry they would clean off a table . The service was second to none.I was just blown away by how professional everyone is. The food was my birthday wrapped in Christmas.Make sure to check out this gem of a place.

Incredible service! Great food/drink and atmosphere. There was 18 of us dining and they didn’t miss a beat! Will return.

I’ve gone to dinner at this place twice now, and have been disappointed and will not be coming back unfortunately.The first time I went my server was pretty friendly, but made myself and my partner feel a bit rushed. He was by himself as far as I could tell but there weren’t many tables, so I’m not sure what the reason behind it was. I ordered the fish tacos and received chicken instead. The server apologized, and brought the fish tacos instead which I appreciated however the tacos themselves had almost no sauce, were very dry and bland. The fish was also dry itself. We paid, tipped and left.The second time we went during Super Bowl. It was not busy despite that - a few people at the bar, and one table other than myself and my partner. Our server was great, she was friendly and accommodating - absolutely nothing wrong on her end. The issue I had was again, with the food. I ordered the balsamic glazed salmon, and asked for extra glaze since I was worried it might be dry again. I got a very bland fish with a few drizzles of sauce on top. The roasted vegetables that came with tasted as if someone washed them and threw them in the oven then onto the plate with no seasoning. The potatoes were also bland. I asked for a vinaigrette and it did not help. Our server brought me a second dish; the mushroom ravioli. It was also plain, and tasted like a microwave dinner pasta. Super disappointing. I ate a few bites and decided to just end the meal there because I didn’t want to ask the server for another dish. I offered to pay for both dishes but she said the first one was on the house, which was not necessary but appreciated.Overall, pretty good service and an alright atmosphere but the food is terrible. Would not recommend unless you’re going for some drinks and good company.

Called to inquire about a missing purse. The bartender on duty at 12:30am on Friday, Feb 10, 2024 repeatedly hung up the phone and left it on the bar for me to listen to the background noise after telling me to call back in 5 minutes. If this is how they treat clients then I can comfortably say I will not be returning, and calling back tomorrow to speak with someone professional.

It is a great place to be with friends. The food was great and the service was friendly. We were not rushed to eat or anything. Definitely will be back.

Run as far and fast as you can.My partner and I went for the New Years event last night and it was quite an infuriating experience. Our waiter refused to serve us the dessert that we paid for in the package. ‘Free’ items were also pushed onto our table, which we were forced to pay for at the end. Not to mention the waiter bought himself a shot… on us.All in all not impressed, I don’t think anyone would be after their bill magically doubled in price.
