“All I can say is WOW! I took my boyfriend here for Father’s Day and we are still talking about the whole experience to our friends and family. We had the sticky shrimp for our appetizer and we could’ve eaten 8 plates of them! For our main course, I had the 12oz Ribeye which was plated beautifully and cooked to perfection. He had the Bourbon glazed salmon and again, beautiful plating and the sauce was phenomenal. I asked for a glass of wine to pair with my steak and it was a perfect match. For dessert we had the Crème Brûlée and the Limoncello which just melted in your mouth. Great cocktails before and after dinner and the bar area is so cool! The owners are amazing and take such pride in everything they do. We are going back this weekend for what I’m sure will be another amazing experience. Easily one of the best meals either of us have ever had.“
