I can’t believe I haven’t done a review yet. This place is simply the best! The food is great, the service is phenomenal, everything is just flat out amazing! The husband and wife duo that run the restaurant are such great people that deserve all the accolades they’re getting. I catch myself dreaming of the waterfall ribeye atleast once a day.
